IV. Thlog

The classes this week have, in my opinion, been the most interactive classes thus far. I really enjoyed the Mark Smith murder activity that we did on Wednesday. I thought it was cool how each group had a specific role that no one else in the class knew, and that we all had to guess each other's roles. Through that activity I learned how distinct textual genres are and how easy it is to distinguish these genres from one another. After reading the genres conducted by each role, I noticed how easy it was to guess the roles of each group. 

I really appreciated having the extra time to work on and improve my paper. If I hadn't had the extra time to think more about my ideas and revise my format, I don't think I would have been as happy with the paper as I was when I turned it in. It was also really nice to see that we are going to be slowing down a bit with the pace of the class because before the adjustments were made to the syllabus, I felt really overwhelmed by the amount of assignments that we were going to have. 

But, with all that said, I'm really glad to be done with WP1. I enjoyed the assignment and I feel that I learned a lot through the PBs, activities, and WP1 itself, so it's almost bittersweet moving on to a new assignment, but I'm looking forward to learning new things from WP2.
