Welcome to the Reading-Writing 626 class blog!
You are encouraged to use this blog as a place to keep notes, to present your ideas and opinions, or to start a discussion about a topic that you find interesting or important.
Here is a basic truth about writing:
The more you write in different contexts and situations, and the more time you spend writing, the faster your writing improves!
Much like learning to play the piano or ride a bicycle, writing is a very physical process; more than most people think! Consequently, the more you write, the more comfortable you'll feel about writing in English, and when you get more comfortable, you can better concentrate on improving specific skills, like paying more attention to word choices, or finding different ways of developing an idea, as well as learning how to find your own grammar and syntax problems.
Writing is the best way to get a deeper understanding of the complexities and flexibilities of a language. It can also help you organize your thoughts and ideas, think about situations you may not feel comfortable about discussing with others, and it can even help you create alternate realities if you so wish. Some say that you don't know what you really think about an issue until you write down your ideas!
Best wishes to everybody, and I hope we will have a great learning experience this quarter!
