Going back to my previous annotation about why is the book written this way, I guess it is just because of how the writers think. In the end it doesn't matter because we're still learning the material that's important, it's just in order of preference

I love learning what people think in writing as well as just in general. I like to know all the different perspectives because then I can start to think of those while I'm working. Seeing many sides of the story.

This is why actually solid annotations matter. They show your thought process while reading and you can summarize what you learned. Both can be referenced in annotated bibliographies

I found this step very helpful in my writing process because I could see all of my information in front of me and how exactly the different ideas intersect and differ. Great tool!

Annotating the articles you find helps since you're actively reading and will help you remember points that you can bring up in your paper

They want the highest amount of people to stay using google so there is an algorithm that recognizes search patterns that way you will see more of what you like and more than likely continue with google

Having a couple alternate terms can be very helpful since the first set doesn't always return with good enough results

parlance- commonly used speech among a certain group of people

I wonder why this chapter doesn't come before 2 and 3. To me it would make more sense to read this first so you know how to go into the reading and writing. But, that is why we are jumping chapters in this class

Pretty much your hypothesis, but for writing

Then there is nothing to write a substantial piece about, you've got to have more depth and sub-questions to your original question

This way it'll give a person more fulfillment from reading instead of reading just for obligation

This is where the "conversation" comes into play. You are putting all these scholar's opinions in to agree and disagree with each other along with what you think

This type of writing feels much more productive since we are challenging an issue and trying to make a difference.

This is more likely to stick with the student rather than the former, and it will be good practice to engage in a community you care about since that is what a lot of careers focus on

Reading like this will help you to make your writing into conversations because you are already going through that thought process which makes it easier to write down

I hadn't heard of this addition to the KWL chart before, but it is a useful one that can lead into research and new conversations in writing

I do like this part of online reading or entertainment. I always am curious about other's thought processes and enjoy seeing the reaction. That's one thing that's fun about sharing interests with your friends, you can discuss what you thought about it and learn as well

At least two of my former teachers implemented this way of reading. Especially with poetry or Shakespeare, we stopped often to interpret what we thought the writer meant and that puts it all into context to better absorb the info.

Personally, I am a very persistent person when it comes to my work, including school and especially my art. I will spend however long it takes to get my project to be just right and to my liking

This is apart of the research process and can show through in your writing especially in the counterargument section.

Office-hours are also an important tool to utilize!

This being said it wastes their time and your money if you as a student aren't going to listen to their instruction or feedback and aren't prepared for classes.

Practicing this type of writing gets the writer to reflect on themselves and things that have happened to them, writing it out helps to process what you think which is a great habit

This is definitely true, high school has more strict guidelines where as Professor Dan's class is more lenient about topic and the writing process; allowing students to engage more effectively

For many years in my grade school career I would complain about being incredibly bored since I moved and the curriculum was different, so I wasn't learning anything new.

I do prefer hand-written annotations in several ways, but there are also pros to using digital annotations. I might switch between the two throughout the semester.

This is a great way to think about teaching; you want to do right by your students

With humans, pretty much everything is a spectrum because people can be different in so many different ways so our experiences differ widely

This is in common with PPSC, professors, along with staff, are pretty flexible and willing to work with students

Looking at what years he was alive, this type of learning is rather recent compared to how long humans have had/been educators.

I much prefer this style of teaching/learning because it is engaging and encourages you to interact rather than regurgitate information thrown at you.

(To me) Learning is when you try something new, whether it be a different method or a task you've never explored, and find information you never knew before. Then you can apply that to your future projects.

I find this to be the best reason for pretty much anything, if you don't have a personal connection or interest, things are a lot harder to engage with.
