pre-conference task


1.      With my personal literacy narrative, I plan to go into more details as to why I like to write and how it will play out in my future in my career and in life. Also to make sure my examples in my essay tie back into my main idea that reading and writing may not be a strong suit for everyone but the amount of effort a person puts into his or her work is what they get out of it as well. Aside from mechanical errors that I have seen throughout my papers, I should consider looking at the flow of my paper to make sure it flows together and it’s a cohesive essay, and not have blocky sentences or have it sound like I just threw random sentences in there, to clean up the style of my writing within my essay.

2.      My role in the group was the same as the other two girls that I am working with. I, as everyone else, got their documents together, annotated them, came together and wrote out our interview script, the outline and the google presentation. No one in our group has the upper hand or has done more work than the other. Some struggles that we had was not sounding bias already in our problem about dieting contributing to eating disorders. We had a hard time finding time to get together to work on the project but when we did get together, we found that we work really well together and can lean on one another to help put ideas together, sentences and pull information from the articles that we found.

3.      What is my grade in the class? How many absences and/or tardies do I have? (If I don’t have an A in the class – what can I do to get an A?) How does the eportfolios work?
