June 11, 2012 English 414
Tonight,
I am impressed by the works other classmates wrote; it’s amazing. The ideas are
awesome and wonderful, organization is well structured, and sentence structure
is nice. It’s one of those truly embarrassing moment I encounter during the
period of peer review. Comparing with these native English speakers who easily
put down their ideas on paper, I have to take time to search an appropriate word
or a phrase reflecting my ideas. From time to time, the word of phrase I put on
the paper might not be well related to my original ideas. Most of native
English speakers are instructed to speak loud while writing. For me, I was
instructed to write a paper quietly because noise might distract me to
concentrate on the paper. In addition, in fact, as an ESL speaker, I even can’t
speak well enough so I am skeptical about whether or not it will work for me by
using the way of speaking loud while writing.
Autoethnography
will be helpful for me to improve my writing skill while correcting some bad
writing habits. Autoethnogrpahy can untangle and analyze the writing processes
so I can find out what part of my writing processes might do wrong and what
weakness I should improve. In contrast, I am not sure whether or not the coding
of transcript of the recoding can help improve my writing.
Since
we are instructed to do this way, why should I not give a try; it might work
for me.
