Reflective Writing
Genres in Academic Writing: Reflection. Its crazy how fast things went and we got so much done in a matter of time. It was a lot to take in and kind of overwhelming if you were behind, but it was definitely useful too me. Some of things we were doing I've had experience with but sometimes I tend to forget. So it was good to refresh my memory and learn more stuff on top of that. All of the notes I took down in my book and all the information we had on sabatinomangini.com was great. If i didn't have that I probably would've failed this course. In this short time we had together, we talked about genre, theme, discourse community and a whole bunch of other things. These three stood out to me for a particular reason, like I said my memory was kind of foggy over the past few years and I think now learning about theme and genre I'm never gonna forget it. I know that in my memoir I had to write a narrative project which is one type of genre and in my research project I did an op-ed and tried to be persuasive in it so you could agree with what I was talking about. I've had the time to look in myself and figure out my identity as an author which was something I've never done before, but was a cool experience. Doing this, making a whole website is something I can cross off my bucket list. I use to think it was so complicated to do this, but now I feel like I could help somebody else out if they wanted to start one too. Another thing I wanna add is ,I was never a writer type of guy because I always thought it was too much but now from just being in the class its like I'm not even writing I'm just speaking on how I'm feeling and I think my author self is starting to come out more. I know that people don't like to read long paragraphs because I don't so in the future I know I'm a break it up into sections. But to conclude my reflection, we all are different with our own identity and I think Prof. Mangini helped us understand that fully. That there was no wrong answers because we all have different ideas.
