Before this unit, I was never able to truly write the way I wanted. I always had to stay inline with the rules of writing, but ever since I started this unit I learned that through writing they way I was comfortable with, I could have a lot more to write about. Essays do not have to always be formal, and they could turn out to be the best way to express yourself.

I already knew about the different forms of propaganda in a vague way, but due to the different definitions, I looked more into propaganda in our society. I saw that everything we see/watch and listen to is a form of propaganda.

I would like to learn more about name calling. I observed that in society, one thing may have a positive and negative, so are compliments a form of name calling?

My main strengths were being able to write and expand on my experiences for our main essay. I am also most proud of how much I was able to write. In the past, writing essays would be hard due to a minimum length requirement.

If I were to revise my writing, I would try to include more details and be more descriptive to help the reader understand my story.

I would rate my participation a 9/10 because at first, a few things confused me.

During this unit, I reflected on my past and the information I have taken in over the past 10 years. Reflecting this way helped me with all of my assignments especially the essay.

I would try to work on my assignments earlier so that I know what my objectives are. 

I wish I was able to get evidence for most of my experiences instead of them being from my memory. 

I didn’t really have any issues with how this unit was presented so I don’t really have feedback on that part. My favorite readings were the bandwagon and name calling ones because they are some of the first things I remember from this unit. Based on my learning style, all activities helped me understand the assignments. 

I would probably end up discussing more about the propaganda in our society, including “positive and negative” forms of it.
