Reflection Essay

This semester I have worked hard on improving my writing skills and adding length and detail to my papers. In each of my essays and/or blogs I have been looking for more sources to interpret different information. I reread my papers and make sure to do spell and grammar check. When I am writing on a certain topic, I make sure to go back and find sources that go in depth on the topic.

Sterotypes and stereotyping has caught my attention. I find myself being more aware of what I am assuming about a certain race then I have been in the past. I incorporate these feelings and opinions toward stereotypes the most when I was writing about the Mafia.

My opinion on writing has changed dramatically since being in this course. In my past english classes I have been less excited about writing and I use to procrastinate horribly and even miss due dates. I take writing seriously now and all topics that I have written about have caught my interest. 

The writing skills I have learned as well as the rhetorical concepts will have relevance to future course as well as a future career. There will be times in the work place when I might have to write reports and being able to understand rhetorical concepts will help me connect to my audience and get a straight point across.
