Learning Outcome 6 – Control Sentence Level

The improvement in control of sentence structure has allowed me to notice when certain words or phrases aren’t needed or could be edited to sound more fluent or sophisticated without losing my personal touch. Using multiple drafts to shape how the paper will discuss the topic also allows me to refine my work throughout the process and before I am satisfied with my product. Throughout the semester we also read various articles and essays such as experts from Trevor Noah’s “Born to Die” in which we observed and discussed how his word choice and sentences portray his heartbreaking message. For times when I missed mistakes in grammar and phrasing, I was aided by peer reviews along with respectful and helpful reminders from my professor when requested. These skills will continue to aid in future courses and careers.
