what i learned

Based on what you've learned so far this semester, what has changed in your writing? What will you continue to do that you've learned and what will you choose not to do? What have you learned about communities? Has your perspective changed at all?


In this class, i have learned many things regarding research papers. Specifically, I have learned how to convey my point with facts and research while incorporating my own voice in an appropriate manner. I would say that my voice has gotten more controlled and more efficient. I feel like I can use my voice to say what I need to say effectively. I will continue in this way in my future papers, and use the skills acquired from this course. As far as what I will not, or would choose not to continue to use...it would be MLA format. This is just one thing that is nitpicky, but necessary to learn for future classes, but I wouldn't mind if I never used it again. I have learned some things about my community. I enjoyed researching the colorblind community, for example, because I was interested and actually yearning to find facts and information about the condition that I have. I wouldn;t say my perspective has changed, per se, but it has been challenged and tested. My mind has been open to other perspectives, and I think that is a healthy thing.
