For my final portfolio, I revised Project Two. This was my favortie project, and I enjoyed revising it. This project encouraged me to keep up with the current news of a topic. I then had to go back to the topic and find the latest news for the final portfolio. The first corrections I needed to make on Project Two were grammar and spelling. I corrected words such as 'molestation', and added apostrophes and commas as needed. These are simple mistakes that I could have avoided by just simply reviewing over my work. Reviewing over my work is something I need to work on, because simple mistakes like these show non-professionalism. I also analyzed my blogs more. I looked at audience, purpose, and rhetorical appeals more. For example, in the blog "Medical Help in Haiti", I discussed how the author uses logos and pathos to strengthen his argument.
Over the course of this semester, I have learned many skills to help me in the future. I have learned how to filter vague topics into a working thesis. I have learned how to integrate sources with my ideas. I have learned to critique my work with an "analytical eye." These skills should help me in future classes and in my profession.
