reflection 2
Since I am beginning to write in a news format, the most concerning part of the assignment was learning to write in a new way. It is such a concern because I need to improve my writing skills. Now I have to write with a new tone and feel. There is a big bump in the road for me. Nevertheless, it is a challenge that I am willing to overcome.
One specific revision I made between my draft and the final version of my story was the structure and format of how it was written. Since I needed to learn how to structure it or how I wanted to format it, I signed into WordPress to look for any peers’ comments and had the idea to use my peers’ articles as a source of format for the structure. Doing that made my story more robust and flow better because now my story article has structure. It also helped me understand how I wanted my article to flow and sound correct. For example, here is a portion of my conclusion: The interviews revealed that Morningside struck out three-for-three with unhappy students. A simple fix on the campus of bringing more local food options can provide improved variety, taste, and satisfaction amongst students and staff.” Sitting down and thinking about what I wanted to say, help. However, I should have done it equally to all the paragraphs.
The process in article 2 that took the most effort was the most fun. Moreover, that was going out interviewing three different students on campus. Because it got me out of my comfort zone and talking to more people who are not my roommates. However, the time I wish I had spent more time on it would have to be sitting down, writing the essay, and going through it. After writing my final article, I felt confident about it. With that, my topic was powerful, something Most students on campus can connect to and stand behind. However, the students may all be able to connect and agree with this article, but what should have been changed was how opinion based the article was. It would have been better to remove my bias toward Morningside’s school foods from the writing altogether and it probably would’ve sounded better
