Writing periods are usually teacher directed and include prompts or copying words in cursive. The only time that writing is student directed is when they free write (during any free time) or when they are working in groups. Throughout the school day, the teacher set aside 50 minutes of writing for the students. The writing period was used for…

The rhetorical decision, using all our senses, and two descriptions paper lessons were my favorite. Learning how to write not just my opinion and views, but rather factor in who I was trying to capture with my writing was a new learning experience for me. Military writing has been my main form of writing for a long period of time and in that form of writing your main goal was to get the objective across without much concern for those that would be reading the document. Most letters I wrote were…

The book a highly unlikely scenario written by Rachel Cantor is about a boy named Leonard who works for Neetsa Pizza, and sits in a white room answering phone calls.

The most meaningful part…

For this assignment, I interviewed Felicia Low, a Program Advisor at the School of Public Health. This interview taught me a lot about myself and my interpersonal communication skills when it comes to communication on a one-on-one basis. Prior to the interview, I was a bit nervous since I did not know Mrs. Low personally and never communicated with her face-to-face. I prepared to conduct the interview in a way that it would feel like a normal conversation and not a regular interview. For…

Beyond Surface Level: A Sigh As straightforward as a sigh can be, its hidden complexities are the sound foundation for “The fine art of sighing”. By definition according to Merriam Webster Dictionary, sighing is “to take a deep audible breath (as in weariness or relief)” however through the depth of Cooper 's writing we find that sighing is a passage to many other emotions and avenues(“sigh”).

members except one. I do not utilize it with my cousin. He believes that it is pointless because it’s doing more harm than good. In some approaches, I agree with him because it can ruin our grammar, vocabulary, and writing skill. For example, if it is summertime and I do not engage myself in improving my grammar, vocabulary, or writing skills the prescribed way, then I may lose…

Within inter-gender communication these masculine and feminine communication styles interact; eliciting either positive or negative reactions dependent on the transmission. Masculine and feminine communicators value differing aspects of communication while trying to achieve differing end goals.

the idea and showed that, although, it may be possible for grammatical encoding to be used in control structures that have no lexical content, most syntactic structures are lexically anchored. To help explain grammar encoding, Tree-Adjoining Grammar (TAG), shows that the objects of the grammar are small trees, which include a word or lexical head. When discussing the second issue of grammatical encoding being automatic or resource-demanding, the article cites a finding from Ford (1982) – which…
