Comparing Rap Music: The Bad Dead And Its Remake Evil Dead

These extensive papers was what helped focus my writing ability to form a better end result. The practice proved necessary in composing a quick but impactful on demand essay. The grade I desired first semester was not accomplished, but that inspired me to strive to do even better the second semester. What I did to make my second research paper great, would have to be replicated even more, with some refinement. Maybe my grade was better because I knew the material more thoroughly. It could’ve been a possibility that I took better notes. Maybe it was just more consistent good grades. It might have even been I a better writer under the pressure of a time

The papers that I chose to include in the “Best Works” section of my writing portfolio I believe best featured my writing strengths.

On assignment 4 I did not really excel on the paper at all. There were many mistakes that could have been simply corrected if I had went back over and reread my assignment. For my research paper I received a grade of 79 and on the AP scale it was a 6 paper. I am sort of proud of myself of getting a 6 because it demonstrates my progress and growth with writing papers on an AP academic level. If I were to be brutally honest I never quite was outstanding at writing research papers, I have always had difficulties writing them. Some of the reasons being having trouble citing sources, and having trouble expressing my argument. Ideally, I was aiming for a 7 for this paper, but unfortunately I messed up the bibliography and botched the CEWEW sets for

When writing my papers in English I was never sure what topic, I wanted to write about. I rotated between two, one being “The Mistreatment of Animals in Zoos” and the second and my main topic being “Is College Worth the Cost.” When writing these papers, I noticed something about myself. I had grown as a writer compared to when I first walked into English 1100, I had some writing experience but not much my grammar lacked and I was the queen of sentence fragments. Throughout the semester during English 1100, my writing skills improved. From learning, how to format works cited page correctly to learning how to analyze a source. My writing improved wonders with each paper. My paper I, I struggled extremely with formatting issues and how to

My favorite paper was probably the album review for the final because the album I choose is my all time favorite

My most memorable writing experience was in my senior year of high school. We were given free range to write about any subject (if it was school appropriate), so I decided to write on the history of rap music. Now up until this paper I had never made an A on my papers. I had one C paper and usually could not make above a B. I was passionate about this subject though, I love history and old school rap music. I poured my heart, tons of facts, and history into this paper. I felt like I went beyond what was required of me with this paper. I was nervous as all get out. Here it is the day we get our final papers back and……… An A+. I was astonished, I cried. The teacher told me that it was very informative and

In my first “Who I am as a Writer” paper I stated how one of the areas that I needed to improve was writing. I went into more depth talking about how my writing is not descriptive enough and how I cannot grab the reader's attention. Even though I still need to continue making improvements, I have gotten better in both of these aspects. Compared to my papers in high school my introduction paragraphs have improved.

As I look back into my high school years, I thought I wrote papers well. But then coming into a college environment, my papers were mediocre. By overlooking at my past papers, I found that they were unorganized, sloppy and had bad use of diction. From now on, I will use the tools I learned in English 1100-40 as a foundation for the future papers I intend on writing in college. Following the criteria of organizing ideas so that they flow, impacting the reader with diction and also by being creative, will help become an ideal writer. Following the criteria of staying motivated in short and long term goals, taking responsibility for actions and finally the ability to study well will help me develop into a supreme student.

My literary analysis piece helped me noticed the mistakes I was making and made me really look at how I could change my writing for the future. Personally, when I finished my writings I felt very proud of the final piece. This was one that I felt proud about and thought it was overall a well written paper, until I received the grade and all

Rap music is the most popular genre today. The root of rap is people playing different instrument and telling stories while doing it. Rap music has become more than just playing music and telling stories it have made a big impact on how people view others. This is an example of tupac telling a story, “ I see no changes. Wake up in the morning and I ask myself,"Is life worth living?

In my opinion, the best paper I did was the Annotated Bibliography. I feel this because I really put more time in it, in comparison to other papers. I didn’t wait to the last minute to do it and I look for reliable sources to use in it. I could organize my time and I used all the tools the professor facilitate to us in Canvas, starting from the book lectures and the examples and the presentations. Also, I used the Student Writing Center.

After writing three papers for English 802, I feel like I have improved as a writer. I learned how to better develop an argument and to use relevant evidence from articles to strengthen my argument. I also learned how to find and use databases. I do feel I have to improve making a stronger thesis in general and to spend more time researching articles. I did not spend enough time researching and I do feel if I spent more time, I would have found better articles. I also had a tough time writing my introduction and conclusion paragraph with each of my papers. I did not know how to summarize my essay in a concise way, but with each paper, I do think I have improved. I do feel I am more of a confident writer. I learned to write out an outline before

This paper seemed very easy to me while I was writing it. After reading the response on the rough draft, I have realized that I need to spend more time proofreading and editing my papers. I thought I did very well on this paper but I was wrong. It seems like every time something seems very easy, I usually get a poor grade on it. After viewing the tips that were left on my paper I have found out that I need to work on many things. Some of these things include the length of my paragraphs, repetitive use of one specific word, adding more personal experiences into my writing, and organizing my thoughts effective enough to where they reach the page requirements of papers. I found these tips very helpful because it has been quite a while since I have written an actual paper. I appreciate that I have a teacher that will actually take their time on each and every paper and leave comments on how to improve that

Over the past few months, I have learned several different writing techniques. While all of the different types of papers were difficult to write, I believe that my writing skills have improved. In fact, I did not understand all of the assignments, but I did try to do my best on all of them. While I should have used more transitional words in between sentences and paragraphs, I feel that I learned a great deal. It is true that I have not had very much writing experience and the writing process is difficult for me. Sometimes, I do admit, it takes days to complete one assignment, but it will be worth it when I am a proficient writer.

Over the course of this semester each paper that was written helped to introduce me and my fellow classmates to different formatting, and genres of writing. A lot of knowledge was gained from writing these papers and I was able to compare and contrast the disciplinary writings and notice what makes each of them stand out. Reflecting back on these individual papers helps to express what I have learned.
