Self-Assessment Blog!

Dear All,

For your FINAL blog, please write between 300-600 words discussing your progress in the class. You should consider questions such as:
  • What kinds of problems did you have with writing at the beginning of the semester?
  • Which of these problems have you eliminated from your writing, and which you still struggle with?
  • Do you think you have improved in argumentation?
  • In critical thinking?
  • How is your comfort level with regard to adding to class conversation?
  • How have your goals and attitudes changed since you've finished your first semester?

Keep in mind that it would be tremendously ironic if you were to discuss how much you have improved, but then made errors in this little essay! That is, be sure that this essay represents the best writing you can do. Write carefully and thoughtfully -- and be sure to edit your own writing!
