I know on the first day of this class when I looked at the course schedule I couldn't believe how much writing we were going to be doing. I told myself that I didn't know if I could seriously write that much. I have never had a class before with so many papers at the length before. Now that the semester is almost over I look back on the first day and say I was totally over exaggerating the situation. This class has been nothing but good things for my writing process and learning how to better my writing with more details.
During the course of these fifteen weeks I have learned more about writing. I think that during this time I have improved my writing skills when using details to describe a person or where I have been. I know that I still have a lot to work on when it comes to writing because I think that no matter how good your writing is you can always improve. After these fifteen weeks I still struggle with knowing exactly what to write. When writing I often find myself getting side tracked and talking about something irrelevant to the subject I am supposed to be focusing on. I think that the class was structured so we could finish our mini ethnography at the end. I wrote all of the papers preparing me for my mini ethnography and didn't have too much trouble laying those papers out. When it was time to write my mini ethnography I almost felt lost because I didn't know what to include from past papers and how much of the past was I supposed to incorporate in my mini ethnography. I feel that I personally benefited from the conferences because I had a better idea of what I needed to fix in my blogs and my writing in general. I think that the number of conferences could stay the same or increase because I feel they can only help not hurt.
