Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 101 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start those conversations BEFORE we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing/reading on a weekly basis in an informal forum.

today's group critique

today's class was really helpful. Looking over other's essays gave me more ideas... I interviewed my Art prof. today, I  had a great time listening to her stories, her experiences and everything. We should do group critiques more often that way some of us will get better at writing papers.

    I agree with you Ela, I think that doing group critiques does have an affect on our writing craft and does helps.

    I actually enjoy doing the group critiques because it helps me out alot more than I expected it to. However when we just have one person read our essay when we first get to class it's not very helpful because it seems like they are reading it but not giving me feedback which is very annoying. They whole point is to help people with their writing not to mark up their paper with checks and happy faces. That does not help me understand what I need to change or add to my essay.

    Yeah I think listening to what others think of your essay and seeing there perspective really helps. It helps you think about things that you otherwise wouldn't have thought of.

    Although I still have to interview my professor I would like to hear his/her stories of how he/she had interests in his/her field of study.
