Self Assesment

Throughout this semester there have been many opportunities for improvement for my writing and my understanding of the many ways that might be able to happen. For this class there have been certain goals to accomplish for my writing. Some I have understood and been able to utilize them to refine some of my skills. Some of those objectives were “acknowledge your and others’ range of linguistic differences as resources, and draw on those resources to develop rhetorical sensibility”, “enhance strategies for reading, drafting, revising, editing, and self-assessment”, “develop and engage in the collaborative and social aspects of writing processes” , practice using various library resources, online databases, and the Internet to locate sources appropriate to your writing projects”. For this class there have been many assignments to write for and all those assignments required some form of research and peer review, as well bouncing ideas off of one another. I think I was able to use these objectives to the fullest extent and have been able to improve in these areas. However , that being said there are certain objectives where I think I could definitely improve on more, like “engage in genre analysis and multimodal composing to explore effective writing across disciplinary contexts and beyond to include public audiences” and “strengthen your source use practices (including evaluating, integrating, quoting, paraphrasing, summarizing, synthesizing, analyzing, and citing sources)”. I believe that sometimes come up short in these areas, particularly when it comes to citing my evidence and analyzing.
