Journal #3

Tuesday, January 26th our class went to the writing center and learned about what they could do to help us when writing papers. They can not only help us write papers for english they can help us with just about any subject. So since i have a research paper to do for my music history class i can go to the writing center and get some help on writing the paper. The writing center is located in the Robert Bell building which is close to where i live so it is not that far of a walk. The people at the writing center can help you get started on your paper and can help you edit your paper. I really think that this could help anybody like me who needs help when writing papers.

English 104: English Composition 2 Spring 2010
I think the syllabus will really help me in this class because of the schedule on the back so i know what to prepare for before every class. The course schedule was a good idea and i think that every class should have one. There is a lot of information about the writing projects for class. It talks about the research journals, conferences, and peer reviews. It doesnt seem like there are many assignments for the class. There are only 7 assignments and most of those are projects. i think that this class is going to be harder than english 103 because more is expected out of you or writing your papers. The grading rubric seems kind of hard because it says that a good paper should convicingly and ardently communicates a noteworthy idea to an audience through sophisticated use of rhetorical strategies. I actually like english and i usually do well in english so i think i will like this class.
