Post eight: What I have learned

In this term, I have learned many things, not only about writing, but other small things as well. Although it may not show as much as I like, I have become a better writer and now understand MLA formatting way more than before this class. Researching has also become a new skill of mine in this period of time. Now I go more in depth with the information, and I now know how to find credible sites and articles to use. This has improved my essays tremendously. There are now more details for the facts, and help me express more knowledge in what I'm writing. I have also learned about using "I" in essays, which was very new to me. It brought me discomfort at first, but after my first essay I got the got the hang of it. Lastly, I now know how blogging works, which is stupendously enjoyable. You put your opinions down while others read it, and they leave how they feel about the particular topic or any feedback they might have. Although this class is ending soon, I am still learning so much. I hope that even after this class, I get to learn more about citing, formatting, and using writing in a conversational sense. For my first college class, I have become much more aware of my ability to write and to cite.
