Class, class, class.

Literature, oh literature. The dreadfulness of essay after essay, notes, poems, poetry, it's all simply not my cup of tea. But somehow I managed to enjoy English 1102. It was a challenge to complete all assignments on time and some seemed pointless but ended up giving insight to the next class. Nevertheless, I loved the engaging conversations in the classroom and the ability to speak openly about very opinionated topics. We were able to do this since order of the class was always kept in line.

I struggle to understand all of the grading. The class participation points seem to be hard to obtain as several in the class are VERY outspoken and have something to say about every topic. The opinions of others sometimes kept me quiet. I wish more opportunities to gain points were given such as reading the plays out loud or other options. I also wish more feedback was given on rough drafts in order to give the writer a better sense of a direction to go in so that more points would be gained on final draft essays. But the feedback we did receive was better than none and more than most professors would give.

I enjoyed the blog. This kind of gave students a way to express another side of them. It even gave lead way into the emotions and creativity of students as it provided a less structured assignment, placing the reins of the ideas in the students’ hands.  

All in all, English 1102 was a fantastic class. The class combined conversation with the required aspects of the course. Mrs. Lindberg is an incredible, understanding professor who is dedicated to her students. Thanks for a great class! Wish you were teaching one more English class to help reach graduation! :)
