4) I did not enjoy the readings from the textbook.
5) I liked the assignment where we had to read 2 position papers and compare the writer’s argument style. This helped me greatly with my own position paper.
6) I did not like the podcast assignments. #flamm101

1) I tend to conclude my writing with just a rewording of the thesis. 2) I have tried to use less filler phrases and words in order to make my writing more clear.
3) I enjoyed reading “The Family That Built an Empire of Pain.”

@Jleathers333 I really liked this conclsion as well because it brings back what the author introduced in the beginning of the paper. This shows that the author did not lose track of where they were heading with their writing. #flamm101

Sharing a personal experience can be a strength in your writing because it shows your connection to the issue. Readers are more likely to believe your stance on the issue when you are directly related to your topic. (1/2) #flamm101

Strong Sentence: “Some types of humor might resonate with people in different ways.” Similar to Browning I also shared a personal experience I have had with the topic of my paper which is humor. (1/2) #flamm101

@juliaumd1 I would be more specific as to how artists, listeners and the industry is impacted: positively, negatively, etc.!

Humor is beneficial to people’s overall health. My potential counterargument is that there is no concrete evidence proving humor and laughter actually improving people’s physical health. #flamm101

[Kelly @Kelly62344615]

This amazes me because people did not know who to blame because it was such a great responsible. Also, it was these advisors’ job to expect these financial situations, however they were extremely off. (2/2) #flamm101

[Kelly @Kelly62344615]

The most memorable piece of writing from this semester is the reading called “A Catastrophic Failure of Prediction.” I find this piece memorable because it mentions how financial advisors completely underestimated the financial crisis. (1/2) #flamm101

“Laughing until their stomachs hurt and their cheeks begin to ache is a way of distracting themselves from the situation/event that is giving them distress.” #flamm101

Humor in everyday life has the most impact on human physical health.
Humor can strongly aid in mental health improvement.
*Humor can facilitate people’s social health. #flamm101

Extreme environmentalists would be the least receptive to his speech because Carlin argues that the Earth is the one harming humans. This happens when natural disasters occur. (10/10) #flamm101

[Kelly @Kelly62344615]

George Carlin’s Tedtalk would be the most receptive to anti-environmentalist because he claims that humans barely have an impact on the damages to the Earth. (9/10) #flamm101

[Kelly @Kelly62344615]

Men who are economists are the least receptive to her speech due to their overconfidence and their strive to promote the economy and lack of care for the environment.

She talks about how women are underpaid and underrepresented gives them an advantage of not feeling overconfident like men. (7/10) #flamm101

[Kelly @Kelly62344615]

Carlin’s credibility comes from his experience as a TedTalk speaker. The limit to his credibility is that he is not a certified environmentalist. Naomi Klein’s Tedtalk would be the most receptive to women because her speech was delivered at Tedwomen. (6/10) #flamm101

George Carlin uses logic to explain that since humanity has not existed long compared to how long the Earth has been around, humans could not have possibly damaged the Earth to the extent everyone believes. (5/10) #flamm101
