Motivation Class at Drexel

English class has given me a new perspective on writing. Throughout highschool fellow students and I have had trouble coming up with a thesis for our papers. If we were to spend just a week in the begginning of Ninth grade on, "Wallowing in Complexity," this would have greatly improved our writing. Our readings and class discussions have been more engaging which ultimatly causes me to use my mind more effectively. Project one especially has probably been the most helpful assignment I have had to do to this date. This is because Project one caused me to think critically. Prior writing assignment have all been basic reports with no real examination. Project one has allowed me to start to create writing that has more depth and meaning. I believe that this type of writing is more interesting and persuasive. Therefor I know I will benefit from this class despite its difficulty. Knowing this causes me to be more motivated to spend time on each written piece I create. I wish that this idea of, "Wallowing in Complexity," could be expressed to high school students. Chapters 1 to 3 in Allyn & Bacon have also been helpful. This book has shown that there is more to writing than I previously thought. Overall I have realized a new importance for writing. This class allows me to practice and grow my writing skills, which is definetly one of the most important skills to have.
