UNIT 3 & 4

PROCESSING INFORMATION USING SOURCES & CRITICAL READING

I learned in class on how to find text using sources and references. i also learned that it is vital that your sources are valid so that it makes it easier to find text. furthermore, one has to use facts that are not outdated and can actually be proven. using old sources or fact that are no longer relevant can sometimes lead to one writing opinion s instead of facts.

I also learned how to structure an academic text, and to critically read a text. basically what it meant to me was that skimmimg & scanning text is important and save time. i learned the difference between a fact and an opinion. a fact can be supported by valid sources whilst an opinion is a mere thought of an individual. i enjoyed my class because my lecture was engaging and gave relevant, practical examples.

what i would like to learn in the next class is how to draft an argumentative essay and what information is relevant when doing so
