Digital Literacy Class Analysis

If I were to describe this course to a friend I would say this class is more than what anyone expects and is extremely eye-opening. It is not like a normal studies class, where it has boring content. It has content that is insightful and allows you to really think about the issues at hand. I would encourage a friend to take it because it is not only a fun class but very informative. I would prepare them for the reality of this class. This class does not just touch the surface of issues we have in society, but it goes much deeper.

This English Composition II class has educated me so much on how to write better, write in different formats, schedule my time better, and how to improve my writing. Learning more about all of these categories will help me in the future when I need to write other essays for future college classes that I will have. I am very happy that I took this class when I did, because of it I am more prepared for college this fall. I just hope my future professors are as funny and kind as Mr. Stout has been towards

Over the semester I have been challenged and intrigued over and over by the content of this course and the professor, who thought I could develop a fairly strong paper if it was not for all my grammatical errors. It has been a very enlightening and enthralling experience that has taught me a new way to write a paper. In high school there was only one way to write and that was it. I think that this class is a great way for students to think out of the box, rather than having to be stuck. It allows them to write more freely about a subject, and I am very thankful for that. I have learned many new skills and improved the skills I already

When I first decided to take the class I didn't expect much from it, except for writing tons of essays each week. My expectations were not high because I knew it was another core class I had to get through. However, my expectations were completely overturned after taking this class for a semester. Instead of writing essays each week we had free writing, a walking journal, interesting articles to read, and most importantly lots of interaction with our peers. This class was nothing what I expected and I was really surprised how it turned out to be one of my favorite classes I have taken so far. I have learned so much about improving my writing and grammar, authors, techniques in writing, and even how to cope with stress and organize my thoughts back in order. I learned all about polemic and dialectic writing as

In this class I have studied numerous things, which have developed my view on the importance of reading and education. I learned how much value other people and communities can place on reading, writing and education. There is also a greater struggle for education and the right to education than I ever could have imagined. This makes me appreciate abundantly how I am able to read, write and obtain an education without having fear in doing so. There are hundreds of organizations filled with people who are passionate about education. Education is vital, everyone should have a right to education and resources to obtain it.

I can say that I really like the structure of the class, and it was very interesting. Meaning that I didn’t see anything that I don’t like from the class exercises, readings, discussions and assignments.

I learned so much in this course from literary element to my personal being. In this class, it's not a boring class with long lectures and the professor gives bombards the students with homework. It's about growing and developing your writing, using skills and element to prepare for the college and real life ahead,

I thought this class was a very good class. In fact I wish that all classes were this simple. I felt like I was able to actually understand the course work. I feel as though this class as

In agreement with finding the class awesome, with a great peer to review my drafts. Many thanks for the positive feedback. It was necessary to read when you stay up to midnight, made it feel worthwhile.

Huffaker (2005) writes “Some scholars suggest digital fluency will be another prerequisite for sociability, lifelong learning, and employment opportunities. The uses of educational technology have a twofold advantage; they can promote the types of literacy traditionally encouraged in

This course investigates women’s roles in U.S. history and contemporary society. Covering three periods of American life, we will study how women’s roles have changed in response to cultural conflict and political movements. We’ll start with an introduction to women’s history and the analysis of gender. We’ll then move back historically into the colonial experiment of the 1600s and 1700s, in the world of contact among indigenous communities, European settlers, and African migrants. As you’ll

I was so amazed at the different outcomes that could result when one obtains any type of loan. I was not aware that the amount of the loan and the interest could impact someone's life so much because of the stress and time it would require. In the future I will consider the purpose and amount of a loan before I apply for it. This is because not only do I not want to spend so much time paying off a loan, but I also do not want so much debt under my name. This week I learned that money obtained from our future social security is not enough to cover our everyday lives. I realized how important it is to start saving for retirement at an early age. I am so glad that I started saving up for my retirement at the age of twenty. I feel that by being responsible now, I can benefit from it when I most need it.

This paper is for those of you who think that Women’s Studies Courses are limited to just women and the knowledge you gain will never be utilized in your life experiences after college. My purpose is to help you to reevaluate your decision and guide your understanding to the importance of viewing not only a different side of history but seeing a more fulfilling outcome for the future. Before taking American Women’s Studies course I used to think the fight for women’s rights was long in the past, that the women in history had set out to bring about certain changes for the future and they achieved those results. As a result of taking this course I realized, the battle is still on going over numerous issues and unfortunately both genders are still

As media evolves, people are better off at acquiring materials easily and effectively. However, even with access to materials that are difficult to attain in most libraries, students are becoming mere decoders of information rather than critical thinkers ready to learn something new. Just like Pinker states in his passage, “If you train people to do one thing, they get better at doing that thing, but almost nothing else” (526, par. 7) Since the internet provides what we are looking for in a
