Self Regulation:
I stay on task, most of the time, but I occasionally sit there and talk or get distracted. I have been able to listen and read along and not check my iPod or go on it throughout the semester unless the class is allowed to. I show up to class most of the time on time, but I have been late occasionally and I have missed classes due to excused absences because of appointments or dance. I complete all of my assignments to the best of my ability and post them on time.

Analyzing/Creative Work:
I write my assignments in formal writing and informal writing when either are needed and I edit my work, but when it comes to formal writing sometimes I forget that I'm writing formally, so I could improve in that department. When classmates comment I go back to my work and edit it with their suggestions in mind and repost for further critiquing. When I use quotes from sites or famous people I give credit to the source of my information. I make personal connections to my writing when writing informally and make connections to life or literature when I'm writing about a specific topic that involves needing evidence/connections.

Contribution to Learning:
I don't comment often. When I do comment it's when I'm given time in class because I am too lazy and I procrastinate against doing it at home. I re-read and edit my own work before I post it, then when people critique it, I go back and fix my mistakes. I do my research on topics that involve specific facts or quotes as evidence and contribute to the class discussions by searching up definitions of words, things about authors, etc... and I join in on class debates/discussions and put forward my opinions and ideas.

Your pictures AGAIN!!! I'm not sure which tech problem is making your pics little blue squares on my computer but it's okay, I just reread your whole blog so I am confident in what you have done. I think you have a solid grasp of not only the content of our class but your own strengths and weaknesses. Your positive behaviour choices help you minimize the impact of the places you struggle (like formal writing) because you get your work done, edit, and engage in self improvement. You have been brave in class discussions and I would suggest your own writing will improve as you read others work and try to figure out what to comment on. Metacognitive skills will allow you to learn content wherever and whenever you need to in the future, so keep thinking about how and why your are thinking. :)
