Over the course of this semester, English
102 has greatly impacted my views on literature. The course has expanded my
viewpoint and abilities when assessing literature. My ability to analyze both
short stories and poems has grown. The importance of understanding the context
in relation to the author’s personal life and time period has become a key component
in my analyzing skills. In regards to my writing I have developed a stronger
ability in writing a thesis. With a strong thesis that fully answers the question,
it has led to the further development of topic sentences. The course has
greatly advanced my skills of interpreting and writing about literature.
Various
aspects of English 102 have aided to my enjoyment of the class. One of the
features of class that I enjoyed the most was the blog homework assignments.
These assignments challenged the norm of typical homework activities. The incorporation
of personal views, thought-invoking questions and freedom of choice is what
differs from most classes. This created a sense of enjoyment when completing
these interactive tasks. Another aspect of the class that I appreciated was the
final blog assignment. Rather than a final research paper, this assignment
allowed freedom to discover a topic of interest while adding aspect of creativity.
In
5 years, I see myself as an individual who has immensely grown as an individual
in regards to thinking and writing. The ability to actively think will aid
career opportunities or conversations with patients. In regards to writing this
can be used for field-based research which requires the ability to develop a strong
thesis. English 102 has given me various assets to not only prepare me for other
college courses but for other career ventures.
