Unit 8 DB: Reflecting on Writing (ENG110)

We have done a lot of writing in this class! You have crafted a memoir, worked on a paragraph response to an article, created your own pro/con of an issue, and finally drafted an argument essay. Now, you will reflect a bit on the whole process and how you think you will use writing in the future.

In the introduction discussion, you were asked about your feelings regarding writing coming into the class. In your initial post, answer these questions:

• How have those feelings changed or evolved as you complete this course? Do you still feel the same way about writing that you did at the beginning of the course?
• Also in that introduction, you shared your major. How do you think writing will be used in your major and in your career?
• Finally, what questions about writing do you still have?
