Writing 101 Section 93

The Termination of a Class

 

A couple of months ago I was just arriving to Oxford, Mississippi to be an Ole

 

Miss student. I knew this was going to be a big change for me. After going from

 

Columbus, Georgia to a small college town far away, I knew my life would be

 

different. I was leaving what I knew as normal. Walking to my first classes of college

 

I was nervous yet excited. Overall I have enjoyed my first semester at Ole Miss and

 

the classes I have taken. Luckily I was enrolled in a writing course with a class where

 

all the students and teacher got along well and really mixed together. Professor

 

Atkins taught her Writing 101 Section 93 class five different learning outcomes

 

which were developed through lectures and the different papers and projects

 

assigned.

 

Throughout the course all the students were able to learn all different

 

learning outcomes that were listed in the syllabus; Writing Process, Exploration and

 

Argumentation, Purposes and Audience, Research, and Conventions and Mechanics.

 

The learning outcomes were used throughout the year. They were taught for

 

students to become more familiar with other people?s writing skills and how to form

 

a paper with credible sources. Professor Atkins gave her students hands on

 

experience with working on the writing process of others papers and their own

 

when the students were told to complete peer reviews. All of the other learning

 

outcomes were developed within assignments given and lectures taking place in the

 

classroom. The one paper I enjoyed writing was the argumentative paper that was

 

assigned to be written by a group of individuals in the class. Students had to

 

understand how to research throughout the library, it's database, and find sources

 

throughout the Internet. In the beginning of the semester, students were assigned to

 

complete a ?Selfie Scavenger Hunt? which introduced the students to find credible

 

sources around the library and the library database. The scavenger helped all the

 

students to become familiar with what later was used to write the different papers

 

and projects assigned in Professor Atkins? class. The scavenger hunt introduced one

 

of the first learning outcomes developed in the class, research.

 

While writing an outline for my argument paper, multiple credible sources

 

were needed to form an argument. The peers that I was assigned to write my

 

argument paper with both had two different methods on beginning to write a paper

 

and how their research is done. Coping with other people?s techniques on how to

 

write a paper is difficult yet a learning situation which made me enjoy this

 

assignment so much. Exploration and Argumentation was a major learning outcome

 

I received from this assignment. When receiving our grade back I was shocked but

 

understood why we received it. The paper was not laid out properly as said in the

 

thesis and the different writing skills of each team member did not flow together.

 

The faults I received from the paper only turned into a gain on what not to do in

 

future references.

 

When forming an argument our group felt immoral when deciding Samsung

 

makes a better smartphone than Apple. All group members own an iPhone and

 

when researching we figured out that we chose wrong when buying a smartphone. Although our paper included multiple pros and cons for each phone, our paper

 

turned into more of a bias opinion to both phones than of an argument. Multiple

 

statistics ran by credible sources were involved in choosing the argument and the

 

paper. The statistics showed different features and characteristics that are better on

 

one phone than the other which made the reader confused on our argument.

 

Our paper covered the durability, display, battery life, price, and camera of a

 

Samsung smartphone and an Apple smartphone. Samsung won when comparing the

 

camera, price, and durability to the iPhone whereas the iPhone won when

 

comparing the battery life and display to the Samsung smartphones. Both of the

 

smartphones are the top smartphones on the market in contrast of the other ones

 

sold throughout the world. In whole, the Samsung smartphone was the winner in

 

the argument paper but should have had more pros than what was written in the

 

paper.

 

In whole, I enjoyed my first writing class of my college career. Professor

 

Atkins taught her students everything promised in the syllabus and was a great

 

teacher in whole. When she would see most of the class loosing concentration she

 

would quickly gain it back in an easy manner. She taught me the correct steps on

 

how to write a paper and how to enjoy a writing class. Without learning the five

 

outcomes written in the syllabus I would not be able to properly write a paper.
