This\nclass has really improved my writing progression. The midterm essay was one of the\nbest essays I have written in this class. I got a 94 on it which means that I\nonly messed up on one section and that\u2019s it. My writing skills over the course\nof this class has significantly improved. One aspect of this class that I still\ndo not understand is the editing skills checklist. I have had the most trouble\nwith this in the class. I believe I would have a higher grade in this class if\nthis was not a requirement in the class. The editing skills checklist serves no\npurpose in my opinion. I do not need to rewrite the feedback form my teacher on\na spreadsheet to learn from my mistakes. I learn from my mistakes by understanding\nwhat I did wrong. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The\nePortfolio also seemed like a waste of my time at first. After I started to\nwork through it, I realized that this website was actually very helpful in my\nquest to better my essay writing skills. The journals that were a part of the\ncriteria for the website helped me to better my word selection skills. I would\nuse simple words and now I use more insightful and meaningful words. Another\nway the ePortfolio website helped me throughout this course is that I learned how\nto develop my own website which will most likely help me in the future as an\nupcoming business major. In this class, my grammar skills have been more\nthoroughly developed. I rarely make any grammatical mistakes now. This has\ntaken my writing skills to the next level because now I am not worried about\nmessing up on the grammar section of the rubric. I am only worried about the clarity\nand syntax which I have also done well in the class. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The essays\nthat must be completed for points in the class were not as difficult as I had\noriginally thought they were going to be. I realized that after the first essay,\nI was going to do good in the class if I had just stayed on top of the workload.\nThe one problem with me is that I procrastinate a lot of my work until the very\nlast minute. I usually do this with almost all my essays and homework. I had\nprocrastinated all the essays for this class and if I had done them earlier, I\nmay have gotten higher scores on them. The grades that I had received on the\nessays were not horrible at all, but they could have all been perfect scores if\nI were not lazy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This class can easily be passed with an A if one just takes the time to do the work the right way and turn it in on time. The most difficult part about this course was the editing skills checklist. The easiest part of this class were the journal entries because I was able to write about what I wanted to write about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
