What were the notebook activities that made you think differently about a project, or about your writing (or research or revisions)? In my opinion, the notebook activity can help me to keep open my mind. Although I already chose one main topic and knew which side I wanted to support, the notebook activity made me see same issue from different sides. They were really fun activities.
What notebook activities were the most interesting or fun? I liked NOTEBOOK 10. The reason is because it was fun. I went to Youtube and typed some keyword and listened to some songs in which the singer used their voice to say story. I liked that I could enjoy wonderful music. Especially because in the end of semester I feel so stressful, so this activity gave me a little bit of personal time to relax.
Which notebook entries do you like the best now? NOTEBOOK 6 give me real fun time. When I doing my explore, I can found something I never think about that before. Also, because this activity give me very good thinking in my Information Effect Project. Because I'm in that situation.
Which notebook activities might you try again, in other writing circumstances? Respond to these questions, and answer one more: 2c. Choose one of your sources. Write a short bio of your source's author--300 words. Now write it in 100 words. Now write it in 50 words. I would like try this again because through this activity I can learn how to distinguish what is important and then what is the most important. Some information is not really useful in sources. 4c. Interview someone who participates in or who is served by your community organization. What are the most pressing needs of this community? Who are the stakeholders, figures of authority, and leaders in this community? Who has the most authority? Who has the least? How do internal (within the community) and external (outside of the community) power relations affect the community? Actually I really want to try this one and next one. I want to talk with my bishop, I want to know in church side what kind of the answers he will tell me. There were two reasons I didn't do this: the first is I didn't have enough time, and the second is I was a little afraid. He might be tell me the truth or he think I "real need to talk". 5b. Have a conversation with a community leader that is related in some way to your community organization. What are the expressed needs or concerns of your community organization that still warrant a response? How have these needs already been addressed with rhetoric? How might you further address these needs in fresh, innovative ways? What are the most pressing rhetorical considerations you'd face while addressing such needs or concerns? I have been thinking about writing a question letter to Chelsea Shields to make an interview with her. But maybe she will not respond fast enough because she still has her own job and my homework has a due date. So, I abandoned this idea.
Name three new tools or strategies you now have as a result of doing the notebook activities, ones that you can use with some confidence going forward. Using the library database is a good way to find a lot of information form different types of sources. This includes things from a long time ago and also more current articles. Second I like using TED talks as a source. They are free and easy to share. They also cover many topic areas. Finally, the notebook activities are a good tool to give you room to think more freely compared with the main essay. So, I can feel free, to do any thing I want to try. For example, I can share my own experiences or use some fun media. The activities help you to get really good ideas and think more about your topic from new perspectives.
