Effective Communication

Continuing an essay I once wrote but with different requirements, I was very excited to continue my personal interest in financial success. Throughout this paper it felt like I was targeting an audience that need my help throughout their financial problems. I had probably one of the funnest times writing this paper. I stayed up late a lot of nights just to get make this paper the best that I could, however it never really felt like I did my best. All in all I felt like I used the researched knowledge to better my intelligence and support others searching for financial assistance with common purchases and at the same time clearly up any common mistakes citizens make when money is in their hands.

Critical Thinking

Some would say, writing about rhetoric isn't easy. During my Writing 2010 course taken through the University of Utah, I was given the opportunity to focus my ideas on Ethos, Pathos, and Logos, the three rhetoric bases that great writers or here, Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech that touch the nation as a whole during his time. Through this piece I focused on breaking down specific parts of Dr. King's speech in which, to me, he uses the three bases of rhetoric and also backing up my claim with evidence. I really enjoyed studying this speech for a second time, once during my English 9 classes freshman year attending Bonneville Junior High School.

integration and application of knowledge in civic, social and personal contexts

Of all types of writing, argumentative essays are what I feel weakest at. Here, my research consisted of many sources that supported citizens being donors. I was inspired by a family friend that commonly presents in drivers education for sophomores when they can decide whether they want to be a donor or not. Being a non-donor I want to explore the evidence why being a donor can be so beneficial for those in need of a transplant or other physical needs. I really enjoyed opening my mind to the varies stories I read through tough times actual people had to face when waiting for an organ transplant.
