Composition

Modern Music Composition Composition has been an ever-changing entity in our society. Music composition is also a very alternating subject of study. You have to keep up to date when you wish to compose a piece of music. This is strictly due to the progression of music in this day in age. If you fail to study, the music you are writing may, very well, upset the music community with old or potentially outdated material. The only way to stay up to date with composition is to listen to a lot

College Composition can be difficult for some people, and a little nerve racking. Whether this is your first semester in college, and maybe the first college class you have ever taken or you are a second semester student that put off the course for your own reasons. Writing essays almost every week can be stressful, and discouraging, especially for someone whose strong suit is not writing. Maybe you are afraid to show up late to class, having people hear your growling stomach, making friends, forgetting

Upon entering college, I was actually quite nervous about what to expect from my Composition I class. I’d seen the films, read the articles and heard from others about all the insane deadlines and stress that came with that. I never enjoyed writing or English class in general, but taking Composition I has changed my views on both. This class has benefitted me in several ways, as both a student and a writer. I have learned how to write more effectively, expanded my writing methods, and learned how

Composition and Rhetoric (a.k.a. Writing Studies): A Flexible Field In his essay, "Teach Writing as a Process not a Product," Donald Murray outlines the major difference between the traditional pedagogy that directed the teaching of writing in the past and his newly hailed model. Traditionally, Murray explains, English teachers were taught to teach and evaluate students' writing as if it was a finished product of literature when, as he has discovered, students learn better if they're taught that

English Composition is a whirlwind of knowledge which you must face whether you want to or not. Throughout this semester, I have overcome many obstacles while taking this class. I have also learned many things, some relating to English, some relating to life in general. The thing most strikingly obvious was the amount of personal issues I had this semester. My mother needed to have emergency surgery, I got into a car accident, leaving me without a way to campus, and I had to balance classes with

Coming into the 3D program, I was none too excited about taking any general studies classes, including freshman composition. English class has always been the one class I have always had a disdain for. In high school, English was all about reading literature and being told to write several pages on a topic seemingly unrelated without any direction to guide us. Upon coming to Freshman Composition, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that the class was nothing like those classes. I feel as if I have learned

The Revision Process Entering English Composition I, was stressful knowing I have attempted twice failing. It was still like driving a car wearing a blindfold. Knowing I struggle with spelling and grammar, I am determined to accomplish this class due to my personal and professional growth depending on it. I started this English class because I needed the credit to have my two-year degree, not to become a journalist. I have never enjoyed English, I am not one to put my feelings on paper and do

As a student in High School, my writing composition was not very well developed. Although, I got help from my teachers, in addition to that, on my free time I went to the library to make extra corrections that were needed. My dad also helped me all throughout high school by reading over my essays and making comments on what I need to improve on, but even then I believe that my writing could have improved. I have tried to find strategic ways to improve my writing and I believe that I may slowly be

My Experience in Composition One I liked my composition one class very much. I did not know what to expect walking in the first day of class. Honestly, I was very worried that I was not going to have a clue on what I was going to be learning in there luckily this was partially true. I will explain why I say this by talking about my strength, weaknesses, and improvement in this class. A strength I realized I had while in my composition one class was that I was good at using quotations whether it was

I really didn’t understand what I was doing. At first, I was scared to take this class. During my high school years I wasn’t that good of a writer. I thought this composition class was going to be hard since I sometimes thought it was hard in high school. My writing experience was good and sometimes bad. This semester in the composition class I had many writing strengths and weaknesses. These strengths and weaknesses is what helped me learn the errors I was making while writing essays this semester
