A New Light

Today, I completed two assignments. One of those assignments were assigned days ago while another assignment was assigned for today. The today's assignment was simple, we were instructed to watch a video and take notes; yet, the other assignment required a little more work than usual such as taking notes, annotating and creating a thesis with a paragraph. I truly despise the fact that we were given the rhetorical analysis for the AP exam because it is not my best area. In fact, I never did well when we were assigned to create our own rhetorical analysis for a class grade. After finalizing the assignment, I acknowledged that the rhetorical analysis is simply like prosecuting a business for their advertisement and explaining to the judge why and how they were able to persuade their viewers that their product performs miracles. But, even when looking at this from another perspective and understanding what it is or what the purpose may be, it is still difficult putting the words into the format required to receive approval. Overall, I still do not understand how to compose a rhetorical analysis but I am attempting.

Long day

Today, there were tons of errands that I had to run which resulted in me trying to complete my assignment at the last min. Overall, today was tiring.

Falling Behind

Today was another day in which I didn’t complete my assignment at the usual time. It seems as if all my classes are overlapping with assignments and I have to constantly juggle them in order to complete them. Overall, things are becoming hectic.

Day of Relaxation

Today, I decided I would take a break from all the overthinking and brain frying so overall today was a relaxed day.

Clashing

Today has not been a very productive day for me due to well, natural lady occurrences and trying to complete work from my other classes. I will try to complete the assignment but if not then that will be extremely disappointing. Overall, I'm trying.

Not So Good.

Today’s assignment was not as easy as I expected it to be. I really dislike the fact that they chose the rhetorical analysis for the AP exam. I never really understood it while school was in session so trying to understand it while we are doing online class makes it even more difficult. I know that I will be nowhere near ready for the upcoming test but I will try to apply everything that I have learned so far. Overall, today's assignment was discouraging.

Hard Time Thinking

Today's assignment was a little bit challenging. Well, that would be an understatement because it was extremely challenging. The assignment required us to create our own thesis after we were to watch a video instructing us on how it should be done. It was simple comprehending how a thesis should be constructed while viewing examples with the instructor; however, constructing one on my own was stressful. I feel that it is difficult to combine my ideas and to correctly compose some form of writing. Overall, I hope to understand how to correctly form an essay by upcoming of the exam.

Easy Peasy

Today’s assignment was easy, although I still don’t understand rhetorical situations but I feel that the assignment kind of helped. Overall, today’s assignment was simple.

Putting My Knowledge To The Test

Today’s assignment not only required for me to watch a video but for me to answer questions based on the knowledge I’ve acquired. I am sure that I answered them correctly; however, if they were incorrect, at least I tried my best. The other assignment required for me to fill in a chart with rhetorical situations of my own that I’ve experienced within 24 hrs, their components, and why they were used. Since I didn’t do much yesterday or today, I only had 3 situations within the chart. Overall, the assignments were simple.

Too busy for class

Today, I did not complete my assignments early as I usually do because I had to run many errands. Today’s assignment consisted of a video instructing students on how to create rhetorical analysis introductions and a question that required us to create our own rhetorical analysis introduction. Even after watching the video, I had an extremely hard time composing an introduction; however, I tried my very best. Overall, today’s assignment  was challenging.

2nd day of online class

Today, the assignment wasn't so bad and I learned more about how to approach the rhetorical analysis. The instructor in the video says to look beyond the outside of the essay or whatever it is that we are given and to find a deeper meaning within it. Overall, I am enjoying the online classes.

First Day Of Class....Again

Today, was the first day of the online class. I completed my assignment which consisted of watching a video and taking notes. The video was about attacking the rhetorical analysis. It was very simple to comprehend as the teacher broke it down; still, it was difficult labeling the main points and choosing key lines. I doubted that I could annotate in such little time but I found myself finishing ahead of the time given. Whenever I resumed the video, I noticed that my answers corresponded with those of the teacher so I felt reassured. Following the end of the video, the teacher instructed that we take a quiz that goes with the video. I miss 1 question out of a few earning 17/20 points because I read the question wrong. I am disappointed that I missed such an easy question but you live and you learn. Overall, I think I can get accustomed to online classes.

Preparation and Experience

Today is indeed Friday and even though the teacher had not told us to post a reflection today, I chose to do it anyway. This has become somewhat of an inadequate hobby of mine along with the fact that it has helped me lengthen my writings and brainstorm essays in an instant. This week, I have completed the assignment on AP Classroom with the hope of finally being able to look through the AP book and learn a few things that will be beneficial concerning the AP exam.
