Blog Post

Part 1:

Summarize larger bodies of work does beneficial to me as we move forward, because as an international student in CSU i was so confused about how to get the importation information from the text in the courses and what i did before was keep reading the text book lots of times, this way costed me many time and it didn't really work well. After the class move forward, it teaches me how to get the most important information from the text very easily and translate to another version that is much better for me to understand it. Think critically this ability  as writer it helps me how to analyze  information in a good sequence and also giving the opinions to the thing that we read and write it down in another angle. For the individual in society, i would say thinking critically can really help me charting out the future of the organization because after i graduate from the college, i don't need to read the boring text and analyze it to an another boring text, but i need to think critically about different things and analyze those to the right  order that what i really want to do. Learning to view texts in different ways like advertisements, Tweets, and blogs did help me shape my understanding of writing and authorship because each of those ways have their own style of writing. For the advertisements( pathos, logos, ethos), it teaches me how to write down a good paper to persuade the audience by using the pathos, logos, and ethos. For the Tweets, i really like to read the tweets from the classmates, event though each of it just like one sentence for per person, but i see the main thought and what they really concern about one thing.
