Today, we discussed chapter one, "Reading for Writing". We talked about several tips on how to take quality notes such as underlining, highlighting, annotations, and looking for key points in each paragraph. We also completed a couple of exercises pertaining to the subject matter. Personally, I found the first exercise easy but was a little baffled on the next. I wasn't able to comprehend the meaning of the 9 steps within the given time frame and apply them to the exercise. Overall, the session was informative and I gained valuable tools for taking notes.
Sincerely,

It was a great refresher to go over.
ReplyDeleteI also had a hard time comprehending the 9 rules of writing an effective summary.
ReplyDeleteI agree, I kinda don't get some of the rules because it looks the same than the others but hopefully we will in the future.
