Write about a conversation that changed you.

 Prompt: Write about a conversation that changed you.

Prompt Response:

Unfortunately I cannot think of a conversation that could have changed me, even if there was one I do not remember anything nor do I think it was the inspirational kind. I'm pretty sure that I was the one who changed myself without having a conversation, there isn't anything specific in my memories that may support that there was a conversation with someone that changed me. 

Summary:

Today we learned how to site textual evidence for our assignment, 'Argumentative Writing Evidence', where we were provided with two articles about if social media is more harmful or beneficial for the mental/emotional health and social skills of teenagers. I picked the claim that social media is more harmful, we did our 5 Bubble thing and I wrote 5 reasons why it is harmful, then we had to make a claim about it using three of our reasons. The assignment needed 2 supporting claims, 2 evidences, 2 summaries and 2 sources, then on the other side of the sheet will oppose our claim.

Reflection:

I learned how to think in opposing claims and how to make both claims with the two articles provided. It was nice to exercise claims again and get used to the idea. Despite not finishing the assignment as fast as some of my classmates, at least I knew how to do it.

 Prompt:  Reflect on your research topic and identify the most compelling issue connected to it. Clearly explain what the issue is and discuss why you find it particularly interesting or important. Support your response with specific details from your research. Prompt Response: The most compelling issue connected to it is the massive enforcement and deportation initiatives with humanitarian protection obligations and civil liberties. More specifically, the tightened U.S. immigration regime, I find it interesting and important since it's a big major issue today. The immigration policies of the country had impacted economically, socially, and politically, creating different outcomes for the immigrants or migrants who struggle to survive. Summary: Today we worked on selecting sources, each person presented a source from each category, then we would pick the best one to use. Mr. Rease gave us two worksheets to work on, my group managed to finished one paper. We had to fill in the ...

As the first semester comes to an end, take time to reflect on your learning and growth in this course.

Prompt Response: What I most enjoyed about this class was how funny my classmates can be, the only entertaining people of my day since everybody in my other classes are either boring or annoying. I also enjoyed the work, not always but the majority of it was not overwhelming and I appreciate how Mr. Rease thoroughly explains what we need to do. I haven't felt completely clueless in a while and its a great feeling compared to last year. I don't really recall any project or assignment that I fou...

  Reflection: This assignment helped me reflect over my character and how simple I can be, I already knew some of the basic stuff about myself and it was nice to look back into it again. I barely needed to introduce my character or personality with other people so this is one of the few experiences that I get to do so.
