What really caught my attention from the reading is the interviews conversation. I actually used some of the things they talked about for my past interviews. #RHUB305
@Justin48096599 Hey Justin, I agree with you, I think overall a life changing decision is hard to make, especially when it comes to the judicial system.
Merriam expresses sympathy towards those facing the death penalty because there’s been cases where the person receiving it, is actually not guilty.#RHUB305
I found the library website somewhat difficult at first to navigate through but got the hang of it after a while. What I found really useful was the tutorials that were posted. #RHUB305
Elon’s letter to twitter was kept 100% professional. He made his point clear about it being about business, and gave clear details as to why he was pulling out of the deal. #RHUB305
So far I am enjoying our writing assignment, but I am struggling a little with the formatting. I find it hard to write down my ideas. I have an okay rough draft but I am have struggles with editing it into my final draft. #RHUB305
@kaleen_orlowski Hey kaleen, I agree with your
elaboration on the origami figures! The
origami representing something more
than just a piece of paper was a great
use of the authors writing skills, and
was something that flew right over my
head until being brought to my
attention!
After reading, “Shitty First Drafts” I realized how I often try to make the “perfect” rough draft when I’m reality that’s not what it is. These are just basically thoughts being blurred out, and in your next drafts you improve them to hopefully come out as a great paper. #RHUB305
@colewattssdsu Hey coke, I agree with your statement on social media. Social media nowadays plays a major role in the way we think, even when it comes to the smallest things.
One topic we touched on in class was oppression. Oppression is still very much engraved into our modern day society, whether if it’s cultural, racial and, or even educational. It really opened my eyes in the sense that even the thing we read on the daily can oppress us. #RHUB305
As for from Adichie’s ted talk, one thing she said really caught my attention. “The problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete. They make one story become the only story." #RHUB305
Reading chapter 2 and watching “The Danger of a Single Story,” showed how much someone can completely changed your life. In chapter 2 they gave the example that our mind is like a bank and teachers deposit these thoughts into it, therefore shaping our thinking. #RHUB305
