were countless errors that are needing to be revised. In fact, the first major error(s) made were pointless, silly mistakes such as bad grammar, spelling, or wrong word choice. The other major error that was pointed out was some confusing sentences. One main reason for these errors is the time spent writing and proofreading the text.

may have never had the opportunity to write a research paper. The paper is not a speech, it is not a conversation that you have with someone, and it is not a personal letter that you are writing. Every class I seem to get one or two who write this way and write like: “First of all, we will address-------“…..You are not addressing anything.

to write essays to be clear and show our knowledge on the topic, so I was able to learn that before college. That being said, writing papers is always something that can be improved upon. Sometimes I get off topic in my papers, straying from my thesis and arguing completely different points than I mean to. With practice in my classes hopefully I can solve my paper writing issues. Oral communication I struggle far more in. While I have done lot of presentations before, I have serious stage fright

social stories on communication So this week was slow again because of the academic award ceremony. The first two periods were pretty empty of students so I mostly did research for the social stories. I honestly never knew how hard it was to find paper social stories. With everything being on line now it’s a nightmare. Looking at from a social worker perspective this is a barrier for the student. The student cant afford an I-pad and the school does not

things about my writing. I have learned that one of my best strategies with writing is getting a head start. I have learned that I will produce a better paper if I work on it periodically rather than all at once before the due date. Writing a paper periodically allows my brain to take a rest between each night.
