Reflection of this Class

With the semester almost over, English 1900 has been a much different experience than I thought it to be. Coming into this class, I thought it would be a piece of cake. My friends have told me that is very easy and even though there is a lot of writing it is very easy to get an A. However, this feeling soon changed when I received my grades back on my first few assignments. I realized I was going to have to put a lot more work in this than I originally thought. 

The different assignments in this class have led up to the final research paper. These different assignments have developed a greater knowledge and understanding for our particular topic to expand on the issue. This is one thing that I found particularly useful in the class because it allows for continuous research. However, many times it was difficult to improve upon various assignments because of the different feedback received on the assignments. For example, on my presentation to the class I received different feedback from the professor and my peers. This made it difficult to correct because it was hard to incorporate the different views of others and then being graded by only one person. 

From this class, I learned how to persevere and adapt to a different class. I've learned how to write a lot more straight forward writing compared to more fluent, flowy writing. Through reading different articles and group discussions, I've been able to get a new perspective of the English language in modern society.
