1. Review : Unit 3

Topic : processing information using sources

what i have learned about the topic 

I have learned there are initial reading strategies that helps to interact with the source efficiently such as scanning whereby you quickly page through the text to locate that specific information other than reading through the whole text.skimming saves time helps you understand the text better,when skimming a chapter that helps you prepare for your next class.you read to get a general idea of what the text is about.

what i did not understand 

at first i did not understand how to construct paragraphs and what was the purpose of the main idea but after we went through the essay that the lecture gave to us, i understood it more better and that made things a little clear to me.

what i did and did not enjoy about the topic

i enjoyed it when we highlighted some information on the essay that the lecture gave to us.it gave me a clear understanding on how to construct my sentences when writing an academic essay and how to put paragraphs together.

 

2 PREVIEW: UNIT 4

TOPIC: Processing information- Critical reading

what i have read about the topic

I have learned that informed opinions and opinions are not the same.opinions are based on the person believe and informed opinions are based on sound of knowledge of the subject matter, facts are based on evidence,which means it can be proven to be true.

what i did not understand about the topic

I still do not understand how to spot if the sentence its based on fact, opinion or informed opinion.
