Assignment 26- Chelsea Avery

I suppose I felt prepared for the exam so I'd say that most of the year your teaching meet the criteria. Everyone always hated the huge packets of essays where we graded each one but I think it did help. I'm not sure if the comments people wrote really did anything when it came to the way I wrote but it kind of gave me an incentive to try harder each time. I didn't want to have that one essay that was completely half-assed because I knew everyone would be reading it. Maybe that's just me...

Not so effective would probably be the reading of benchmarks. I really wasn't interested in what made really shitty essays really shitty. Maybe reading a few higher up essays to analyze successes helped but other than that, class was dull on those days. I couldn't focus enough to gain anything from them. Also, I'm not entirely sure why our final is to make a video. Maybe its just your sly way of making our final relatively easy and fun but I just don't get how it really pertains to English.
