Overview of Blog Posts

Throughout this spring semester, I have had the privilege of completing blog posts to compile numerous ideas into one website. Some of these ideas included my daily thoughts, my future plans, things pertaining to my career, and fun facts about myself. By writing this various information down, I was able to express my thoughts and notify others about my life. I found this useful, especially since the whole idea behind the blog was to allow a future employer to read it and learn about our life and what we are like as a thinker and as a person as a whole.

Course Objective: Developing Professionalism

 One of the English 320 course objectives is to develop professionalism exhibited in such qualities as self-direction, cooperation, civility, reliability, and care in editing and presenting the final product.

It is representing how it is important to be professional in your writing, all while having good qualities that are represented through your writing.  This objective can be achieved by practicing the use of collaboration in workplace teams on various projects throughout the semester. I believe I have been a diligent student in doing this, as I have completed every single discussion board in the course. Additionally, I have had the drive to give my fellow peers my opinions and edit their works in an effort to better their professionalism as well. By editing my fellow peers' works, I am also gaining my own sense of professionalism and being able to be us
