Evaluate

Although at first i wasn't completely sure if i wanted to write about the FCAT and the effexcts about it, i found myself really enjoying this essay. I did feel as if there was too short of a time to write the essay, but i'm sure the pressure made it better...i guess. I liked researching for sources and articles on the FCAT, but it was difficult to find books on it in the FIU library. The internet was an easier place to find information but i spent too much time trying to find books. I felt that by writing this essay i might've made a difference (of course if i show to someone). I really put feeling into what i was writing and tried to explain the problems in hope of someone understanding how serious this issue is. I was strongest in describing the problems and i agree that i need help with citations. I get all confused when the publishing year isn't there or if there is no author. I felt that after a while there was tension in my group and it made me feel a bit uncomfortable, but in the end it all worked out. I believe we made a great work of paper...lol.

This English experience has been one of the best and it's the fact the fact that it's my first semester in college make it that much better. Tasha was a great professor, one that cared about taking the time to get to know each student individually. She connected with our class on a socail level as well as a professional one. She brought new and technology filled assignments into class, which allowed everyone get a bit more computer savy. Tasha intorduced artists, comercial, and videos that were new to me and i found myself liking some of them. For example, i was really impacted by the mysterious graffitti artinst, Banksy.
I like to believe that my class was one of Tasha's fav. this semester. I look foward to ENC 1102 next semester.
