using blogging in class

Blogging is great in English class because it reminds me of a social networks. You can post things at anytime and see what other people have posted. Also blogging is essential so you can develop communication with your peers.

using online weekly assessments

Using online weekly assessments is a great tool in English. It tell us what the assignment is over, what tasks are due for the following week and also gives us an easy grade just by completing it.

Google drive

Using google drive in our english has become an essential tools. It tells us what is going on in class and also gives us a rubric to go by when writing an essay. Google drive is also a good tool because we can now share our documents with other classmates. I would highly recommend google drive to everyone teacher on this campus.

quotes using two peers quotes

I totally agree with shawnise's statement. She says that the peer review process has advantages and disadvantages. She believes it is effective because it allows students to help others without having it in their face. Peer review is good for college students because you get feedback from multiple people. Shawnise couldn't have said it any better.

Sierra says when she was writing her doc3, she had to write from a reader point of view. She also says that she has to constantly re-read the paper to make sure it stayed on topic. I am just like Sierra. I have to constantly read something so it make sense and that i'm not just talking about unnecessary things.

Peer review

Giving and receiving advice is very efficient when writing. When writing a paper, you would want to receive peer review from your peers so you can see how they feel about the topic and to see what mistakes they feel need to be corrected. You should also give peer review to let your peers know what mistakes they have made so they can correct them before submitting the final document.

Doc 3

When writing my doc 3, the previous information I learned really helped me. My Wikipedia topic had so much information on it that I was also able to use it in my doc3. I knew some things on my topic so I added that in as well. I am interested in my doc3 and also anxious to get my degree to start helping others.

Open topic

Document 3 is a bit interesting to me. Overall, while doing some research over my career, I never imagined the lifestyle was like this. The pay is very good, but the most important part is that I get to help people in this world for a better tomorrow.

Favorite post

My favorite post overall was finding humor in strange situations. This is my favorite one because it relates to me very well. "I am a goofy person anyways because I am always laughing". Whenever something goes wrong in a situation, I always think of a song. Sometimes it relates to the situation, sometimes it doesn't . Whenever I start to sing, it just makes the vibe feel better and it also gives everyone a time to breathe and to get back calm.

why do you write?

Writing is sometimes difficult, but the more you write, the more thoughts come into your head faster. We write to learn.

watch what you put on social media

We must watch what we put on social media because we want to get good jobs when we get out of school. Employers look you up when you apply for jobs to get more info about you.

How to revise a document

When you revise a previous document, its always good to check for grammatical errors. It is even better if you get peers to read over the material you have produced. Getting feedback from others can help improve your performance and it also lets you know their point of view and opinions they have had over it. You also want to make sure that you have explained at least some of the points. You don't have to go down to very little detail but just enough to explain the significance of it.

quoting others

Kenyada talks about the cafe. The cafe food is sometimes good, others it's not. I think that they should have a little bit more variety and actually change it up from time to time. Kenyada says that "we are in college and we don't have access to cook food so they should feed us something actually worth eating". Kenyada is right, if they were to put stoves in our dorm then maybe it will be a little better.
Sam talks about childhood games. All of us as kids use to love playing childhood games. My favorite one was hiding go seek. Sam says his favorite games were " Pokémon, Super Mario, Golden Eye 007, when he sees his nephew, he thinks to himself that they have no idea what they missed out on". With new technology advancing each year, more and more things are going out of style and so much more is just coming in.

child/adult conflicts

Children and adults conflicts are very often in the world we live in. This usually falls into the category of parents and their children. Most of the time is they have conflicts because the parent won't listen to their children or the parents are a little harsh and the kids dont think it may be fair. But we all must learn to get a long to reach a compromise. Situations also differ depending on who is invovled.

childhood games

My favorite childhood game was hiding go seek. I always played it with my friends and we would always have so much fun. Childhood games are fun and they give you a chance to break loose and relax. Childhood games can always be remembered. As people grow older, they don't tend to play their childhood games as much, but I bet you they try to play it with their friends, family, or even children. Childhood games can always be passed down from generation to generation.

how to make writing more emphatic

There are many ways to make your writing more emphatic. One way is make it sound interesting. No one wants to read a boring essay. They want it to be interesting, wants it to catch the eye at first sight. Another way is stating facts. Each writer should always use facts when writing. Facts are true things that can actually be backed up. Its Evidence! So when writing always make sure you use interesting words and that you also use facts.

conflict with someone in your family

I really don't have a conflict with no one in my family. I am pretty much a peacemaker so people won't often fight. We have our disagreements from time to time, but that's what family is all about. We are all there for each other til the end. We may have a little squabble one day, but the next day we are all back talking like nothing even happened.

role of guns

The role of guns in America is to protect the citizens. Law enforcement officers are the most common people who carry guns on themselves at all times. Citizens are allowed to have a gun, but they must have a gun permit for it to be legal Guns should only be used to protect people from criminal act or from criminal offenders. Guns should not be fired just for the fun of it because someone could seriously be injured. Guns somewhat make the world a better place, but at other times guns are misinterpreted and misused. Guns are to protect people.

Manning's story

In the story, Manning talks about his relationship with his father when he was growing up in his younger years. They never really talked like they should have. but everyone has their reasons. They had a physical relationship which was based on athleticism and strength. Manning says" He never read a card or letter written in his hand because he never wrote to him". The world we live in now, we all need to be close to our family because we may never know what might happen to them or who we may need in life. We must also learn to get along with one another for the better.

What i learned from peers

When I read Shawnise's blog, I learned many things about her. I learned that she had a thing for horror movies and her favorite one was "apartment 143". I never met someone who loves horror movies as much as she does. She also says that she never knew apartment 143 was a spanish movie and was created for english countries. I honestly didn't even know that myself. She makes it seem like the movie is very interesting so I plan on watching it soon.

As I was reading Sam's blog, I learned that he is a marketing major. He says marketing has always been fascinating to him because the way a producer markets its producer is what drives consumers to buy products. Marketing is a great major and producers use a great way to get me to buy many things. Marketing major makes pretty good money, and I hope he succeed.

what information i learned about my topic

The best information that I have learned about my Wikipedia topic criminal justice: GBI/FBI special agent is the job requirements and also the money. I learned that you must have a bachelors degree and also have good vision with a 20/20 or 20/40.I also learned that you must go to a 16 week training program at the Georgia Public Safety Training Facility in Forsyth, Georgia. The money depends on the department you work in. Most departments start you off about $3,000 a month.

quoting my peers

One my colleague posts talks about finding humor in a strange situation. http://eng1101clayton.blogspot.com/ Kenyada states " you can laugh your way out of any situation and even make a joke out of it. I can see Kenyada doing this because every time I see her, she is always laughing and smiling. Another one of my colleague posts is about their Wikipedia project.
http://english1101introduction.blogspot.com/ Corlis Wikipedia article is about nursing. Corlis says she has learned the details of the job. She also states that you must be able to recognize all body parts, and every chemical and medication that is used to cure patients. I think Corlis will be a good nurse in the near future.

what makes an effective introduction

An effective introduction should have facts and a good thesis statement. With a good thesis statement, we know what the overall message of the article is. Also a good introduction should have something catchy in it so it can immediately get the audience attention. Also the introduction tells us what your body paragraphs are going to be about. In a introduction, you should be a little specific and gives us some good details about what is going to happen.

what i learned from my wiki topic

My Wikipedia topic is Criminal Justice: GBI/FBI special agent. One thing that I have learned while doing my Wikipedia project is the detailing responsibilities. I learned what the responsibilities of what this job has. Some of these responsibilities are finding evidence, gathering evidence for courts, arresting people who have done illegal things, etc. I am determined to do these because I have always wanted to help the public.

men and women sterotypes

Men and women stereotype in many ways. For instance some men feel as if they tell the women what to do. Back in the old days, men told their wife, not to go to work and they just took care of the house. Women got tired of sitting at home and some wanted to go to work. Some men don't even want to work, instead they want to live off of their wives. Everyone in this world, men or women if they want to work, they should be allowed to work. We live in a free country and we should be able to do what we want to do. In this case, both men and women stereotypes are worse in this.

finding humor in strange situations

I am a goofy person so I am always laughing. Whenever something goes wrong in a situation, I always think of a song. Sometimes it relates to the situation, sometimes it doesn't. I just love laughing and having a good time.

how my wiki topic is broken down

My Wikipedia article is organized very neatly in a way. It gives you the definition, and breaks it  down into the parts of the criminal justice system. It has policing, courts, corrections, and then talks about its history. I used the template you gave me because it's break it down into small pieces so I can better understand the material and the purpose of the assignment.

readings in my wiki topic

The readings in my Wikipedia article are very interesting and seems to be true so far. I know it is a few things that needs to improved so I can edit and revise them. My goal is to edit this so people who do not no as much, can learn a lot from this and hopefully to become successful later in life.

MLA Style

MLA style is the best when writing papers. It helps you with figuring out how to set up your paragraphs and helps you with your works cited page. Towards the end of your high school career and in college a lot of professors will require you to have MLA format.

neat people vs sloppy people

Neat people are lazier and meaner than others. Sloppy people plan big dreams knowing it can and cannot happen. In the realistic world, neat and sloppy words are often misunderstood or switched up. I think neat people as people who keep their self up and are also clean and very organized. Sloppy people are messy and just don't care.

Quote from readings about gay marriage

David Blankenhorn, Jean Bethke Elshtain, and other say is that under tulle and orange blossom, marriage is all about procreation. This is a quote about gay marriage. Some unknown people say that gay marriage is not all about sex, its about seperation of church and state.

writers voice in my wiki topic

The writer's voice in my Wikipedia article is for the audience. It is writing to inform others of the field of criminal justice and tends to be very helpful. The writer really doesn't try to be friendly, he just gets to the main points.

wiki topic

My wikipedia topic is criminal justice because that is my major. The criminal justice system is designed make sure everyone has justice and to also keep this country clean and a safe place to leave. There are many jobs in the criminal justice field ranging from being just an ordinary police officer to being a forensic scientist. I chose the criminal justice because I have always wanted to work with the public and to make sure everything is going good.

how to handle a reader

I handle a reader in Doc 1 by giving them information on how maintaining a great professional online image. Employers look for people who can represent the company in a positive and professional manner. By maintaining a great professional online image, they can see that you are the right one for the job. Handling a reader in doc 1 is simple and easy because I am just giving information.

what is your doc 1 thesis

My doc 1 handle its thesis by stating if you have a good professional online image, you are in good hands and employers would want you to work for them over someone whose profile picture is partying and clubbing.

how to handle a reader, why do you write

Sometimes you write to get a response from people. You handle a wikipedia reader by giving them what they want or need.  When someone is reading something, you want the information to be accurate and free of errors. You also may need to edit things to make the content have a better understanding.

how do you write

Writing is a tool for learning. If you don't write, how will you learn? The more you write, the better off you are to learning. Writing helps you. Everything you write down is helping you in some way.

difference in high school and college

College is different that high school. In high school, they gave us time to do work inside of the classroom and we didn't have that much homework. In college, we have more free time outside of the classroom so we can do our work whenever. I must maintain and stay focused to have a successful year.

writing to learn

I write to learn by just writing. The more I write, the more I learn. Most of the time when I write something down, I go back over and get it stuck inside of my head.

Professional Online Image

Everyone has a professional online image. I've learned while doing this research paper that people must watch what they put on social media. When you go to apply for a job, employers are going to search your name in google to see what pops up about you. All companies want employees to be presentable and have a great background and even a more better professional image.

Profession

I want to be a high school history teacher. I want to teach United States History to sophmores and juniors.I was inspired to become a teacher by 11th grade history teacher. The class was easy and I understood the material. She made sure her students learned the material and made sure they did great on the test. That year I made history my favorite subject and have been urging to teach it ever since then.
