You have a long quarter of first year English ahead of you, and I believe there are a few crucial keys to success. First and for most, stay on top of your assignments. The work load is very manageable and well spread out, and will not pile up on you if you do your blogs on time and work on the larger papers a little bit at a time. Next I would like to tell you to take the blogs seriously, they are great practice your writing, task risks with your writing and voice your opinions. Another great way to improve our writing (and your grades) is to read, understand and use the comments Leslie gives you about your writing. If you think about her comments and take her advice, your writing and grades will improve. Finally, I would like to say that you shouldn't judge the course before you get into it. I was quite averse to sci fi before this class and I could not believe I actually had to watch shows in English class. But if you keep and open mind about the course material, you will get a lot out of it.
Good luck,
Trevor Stengel
I definitely would recommend to not judge the course before you get into it as well.
ReplyDeleteMake sure that you come into this class with an open mind. Give it a chance and make sure that you don't let your work build up on you!
