The assignment I feel most successful with is essay 3. The reason is I got to express a bit of my creativity when making a flyer about a poet and being able to do research and find copyright-free images for them. Then using the BMCC library to learn about the poet.
The assignment I feel I could’ve done better was Essay 1. I should have been focusing and taking things slow on the content I was writing to make sure that I was aligning with the requirements of the essay rules. Next time when proceeding to write an essay on an evaluation I will need to read more carefully on what I write and make sure to read what I write. Then make sure to cross-reference each detail within the text.
One thing I learned this semester was how to cite when writing in MLA format. It never came to me how important it is to credit the author from where you pulled your quotes and to also give the exact day you accessed these certain sites where you pulled your cites from. Then the way to also write where the quotes come from.
One thought on “Week 15 DB Alexander Tineo”
Alexander, it sounds like you have a new outlook on the importance of citation and attribution. That is so great, and it’s something you can use in all the classes you may take which require papers and research assignments. I’m getting the impression that Essay 3 was liberating for a lot of students, especially given the very specific requirements for the other essays. Essay 1 was probably the most challenging because it required cross-referencing and multi-level coordination. But you did it!
