Today in class our objectives were, I will be able to evaluate the product of my own writing, reflect on my writing process, and to find and listen to a podcast that I might enjoy. Mr. Rivers informed us on the differences between high water writing and low water writing. High water is the best parts of a person's writing, for example the highlights and strong content in an essay. Low water are the parts that could use editing and improvement. After this lesson, we had to unsubmit our essays and edit and leave comments. We had to comment and create ten sentences on the following topics: Content, organization, voice and style, presentation, and research and citation. We had to go through and reread our essays and try to find the ares where we succeed and where we need improvement within those topics. For example, for content check to see if you thoroughly analyzed the evidence to draw a clear connection back to your topic sentences. Or to make sure that the heading was correct and the citations were in MLA format. Activities like these are essential when figuring out how to improve your writing. Additionally, we have homework to watch a podcast. The assignment is,"Which podcast did you listen to? How is your podcast different from a film? Did you enjoy this podcast? Why or why not?"Personally, I am going to find a podcast about a TV show I enjoy or maybe even a one about the election.
