Blog #3

To start of with writing the rough draft of this assignment, I just wrote what I had in mind at the time. I didn't take much time looking back at notes or reviewing them. I just wrote what I remember from the readings and wrote my thoughts about it. It was not a good rough draft, I admit that, but rough drafts are rough drafts. It's not supose to be perfect...

For the revised part of this assignment, I went back to view my rought draft then back at my notes and made an outline of what I really wanted to focus on and discuss about. I hightlighted passages and information that was interesting, shocking, and striking to me and used them as my guidelines. My outline was not perfect, but it was super helpful and really beneficial to me while reconstructing and revising my essay.

I choose to construct my essay in a way that presents the ideas of Vincente and Vonnegut by making comparisons between them. I then elaborated on their opinions and views about technology and add on my own opinions. If I agree with what the authors are saying then I simply state that I agree with what they are saying. If I have a different opinion, I just state what I intially think and gave reasons why.

From the experience of peer editing online, I think it could have been better if I got more commets and feedback. I think that to many, this has been a good experience and has been really helpful to them. As it goes for me, it was ok. I only got one feedback from my peers, but I appreciated that and take that into consideration.
