Throughout this writing class I obtained and learned several concepts that will help my writing in the future. I learned how to form an argument that was logical, thought provoking, and also emotionally relatable. Without these essential components trying to argue anything would be impossible. This class also helped me with my personal writing process. It made me realize the true importance of rough drafts, which through free writing can bring out some of the best ideas. Also during the writing process I always struggle getting started. In order to overcome this I usually skip the introduction paragraph, where a paper usually starts, and begin with the body of the paper. I normally know where I generally want to go with my paper just not where to start. This is how I improved my writing process during this class. Another section of the class that I really enjoyed and got a lot out of was the primary research during the second unit. Since my major is biology I am sure I will have to conduct my own experiment of some sort in the future, so any exposure to this kind of writing helps tremendously. I had never done any of my own primary research previously so getting to do that was exciting and insightful. Also connecting primary research to previously conducted research is a critical skill to have in the science field. Almost every category of science must use experiments to back up their claims and use other experiments for further support them or show discrepancies. So once again in anything I do related to science I have a good foundation in scientific writing to work with.
