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 class critique on assign. 4

Today's class critique on the final draft was no help. In the other days we had to couple critique random essays were the same results. Instead of getting advice and suggestions on what to improve on or add on, my paper is being pointlessly questioned about irreverent things that doesn't help me at all on how I can improve. Not to mention the horrible handwriting which is pointless to read..

  1. I think I was the one who did read Your essay. I'm sorry if my handwriting was illegible. but I think the gist of my advice was to give the readers of your essay ways to combat cyber bullying. I'm sorry if it didn't help you, and I'll try to make better comments next time. If i wasn't the one who did the critique, well I'm sorry you didn't get the advice you wanted. The only other thing I can think of that might help you get better criticism, is to suggest you post your essay on the blog and ask the others on the blog to give you advice. I hope this last part helps.

  2. Jack, thats a great idea. Joshua, you should post your essay for others to take a look at because even thought one person may have given you no help at all, other people might be able to

  3. I agree that this is good advice. Maybe, Joshua, you could also tell people what kind of advice you're looking for then you'd be less likely to get "pointless" advice back.

    1. I just realized that is what the "Arthur's notes" are supposed to do. I'm sure you've told us as much, but until just now it didn't click for me. Wow, I centanley do feel foolish right now.
