One thing we have done in class that has helped me with my writing process was the learning analysis essay. I normally procrastinate a lot on my schoolwork, yet the rigidity of the due date meant that I did not have the usual leniency I have come to expect. In this way, this assignment helped me to overcome the normal barriers I encounter with my writing and I was able to concentrate and get the paper done. Moreover, peer reviewing another students paper helped me to see mistakes in my writing that I wouldnt have been able to see otherwise. I also enjoyed seeing my peers interpretation of the assignment. I can apply the idea of revision to my work by reviewing it to make it stronger. I can also implement ways to make myself less distracted while doing schoolwork, i.e. putting my phone in a different room while Im working (which is what I did while writing the learning analysis essay). I havnt found anything super confusing, not yet at least.
