Blog Reflection: 9 Reflection Questions - 3 views

  • As for applying what i have learned in this unit outside the classroom, I can not think of anything.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      How about using Diigo for research? How about not letting quotes speak for themselves? How about getting plenty of what "They say" before you talk about what "you say"? You know more than you think and it is now just a matter of practicing these skills
  • My lowest points of writing this paper was trying to find the information for the topic I have, books and online mostly talked more about characteristics, different types of whales, and where they travel too.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Filtering info is tough. Do you have new ways of doing that now? Do you skim websites better now? Do you make your keywords more specific now? How have you changed the way you search online?
  • It was hard getting certain topics about eating habits.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Sometimes you have to talk to people. Online as well as offline.

  • I do better when I am focused mainly on just one thing, because if i don't then i loose track on what I'm suppose to be doing. I found i love to listen to music when writing papers, I have no idea why but it helped a lot.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      That discovery about music is worth it. Ask me about listening to white/pink noise.

  • Actually, I don’t know it is a good example about question.
  • And it was different between research paper which I have known and I search paper.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      It is a different way to write, but I hope it is one that captures you and your interests better so as to make your paper more interesting.
  • I searched many information of FTA which written in Korean and English.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      At least you got to access both Korean and American points of view. What was the difference between the two? Are Americans being unfair?

  • When I write a story after a long time, I usually find myself surprised by how much my thought has changed during the time how different I feel about the content of the story.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      This is actually a very profound thought. We learn as we write and tell the story. Isn't that how it is supposed to be in our learning? Always growing?

  • I also learned about the different templates we could use in our papers as well.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Did klyou use any in your I-Search paper?
  • This relates to what I already know because I know you have to listen in class to know what you have to write about and you have to look at your book so you know if your doing it right and i know to use the internet in looking for information. And it does take a lot of work to write a good paper. You have to brainstrom and firgure out what information you want to use in your paper and that takes time to do that.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      What you know Listen in class Use internet for info Hard work Brainstorming Time
  • i will be writing a lot more
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Be more specific here.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • take my time and really focus
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Good advice. How do you do that specifically?
  • I feel like I have grow
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Very good point--real learning feels like something. It may vary a bit from person to person, but we all know what it feels like.
  • I had to overcome while writing this paper was not going out to eat with my friends because I had to get my paper done and putting aside time for everything else.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Time management? Deferring fun? Both toughies as a freshman.
  • I have learned that I need to do my paper first and then worry about everything else. I have learned that it doesn't take me along time to write a page as along as I stick with it. The hardest thing for me is starting the paper. I have always had trouble with that. But after i start it and get it going everything just starts to fall together. The best place for me to write my paper was at mass media. Because it's really quite and everyone is really nice. I just like doing my papers and all my other work in mass media. It's hard writing a paper when you have all kind of other things going on like,having all kinds of other homework to do like math and reading and public speacking,hanging out with your boyfriend,making time for friends and also making time to eat and sleep. It takes a lot to write a page and saying focused on it. But once your focused everything should work out and you should get your paper done. Which that's what I did, I stayed foused and got it done!

      Many excellent words to the wise.
