SLO Reflection (Part 2)

This blog post serves the purpose of reflecting on my critical thinking and writing skills. I honestly believe that through the class my critical thinking skills have become better. Particularly, the use of the "precis" as an assignment allowed me to better identify what the main points of text were as well as supporting points and the reasons behind the text being written in the first place.I also believe that the ability to synthesize multiple writings into one argument was also developed through this class mainly due to the research papers we had to write. I definitely improved my writing in the class. On the first research paper, I did more summarizing than argument and I truly hoped to fix that. I came back with the 2nd essay and based on feedback I had made a big turnaround by having highly defined argumentation as well as analysis.
