Final Course Reflection
ENC 3250
By Matthew Pecko
What I have Learned!
 Throughout the course I have learned
many new things and techniques that will
help me in the future.
 However there were a few things that
stood out to me more than others.
 Style and clarity, revision, and audience
are essential in all writing
What I have Learned!
 Style and Clarity are important because
its how your reader will understand what
you are saying.
 You have to pick a style of writing that is
appropriate for your readers
 Use appropriate language and write to be
concise.
What I have Learned!
 Audience is also important because it is
who will be reading your writing.
 You always need to keep your audience in
mind and write to their appeals.
What I have Learned!
 Revising is a key part of writing
 You need to be concise and get your point
across and without revision your writing
could sound very bad and confusing.
 With revision you can achieve wonderful
things.
How I learned!
 The WA4 program proposal assignment
helped me hone my skills with revision
and writing towards an audience because
I had to be very specific and clear.
 I had to make sure I was writing
professionally and revising so that
everything made sense to the readers.
How I Learned!
 Furthermore I learned style and quality
through the WA3 newsletter.
 I knew I had to capture the audience and
make my writing pop and appeal to the
readers.
 So I knew I had to write in a specific way
to grab the audiences attention.
Why does the learning matter?
 The learning matters because I will be
writing professionally for the rest of my
life.
 Therefore it was good to learn more about
professionally writing before I had to learn
the hard way in the real world.
 This learning taught me to manage my
time better especially if I need to write
large assignments
How I will use the learning in the
future
 No matter what job I end up having I will
use professional writing in everyday life.
 There will always be a need for writing
towards an audience and conveying your
message in a pleasant way.
 Writing is an important ability to have, but
having the ability to write professionally is
a skill that can get you a job over
someone else.
