TRY ME | ENGL 101: Discussion 1 | Introduction and The Writing Process

Review this week's assigned reading and resources to prepare for this discussion.

If you haven't already done so, listen to the Writing as a Process Podcast.

Introduce yourself to your classmates. Please share the following:
- Name (what you preferred to be called)
- Location
- Family information
- Employment/education
- Hobbies
- Anything you think is pertinent for us to know about you.
Then, share one important thing you learned about yourself from this week’s lecture on “Writing as Process Podcast.” Reflect on this idea, and support your ideas with details from your life and journey as a writer.

Requirements:

Respond to your peers by furthering the discussion on your thoughts on the strategies shared. Post at least two substantive responses to your colleagues. Cite scholarly sources where required. Responses could include suggestions for further resources, questions of clarification, or providing context and insight. Avoid simple posts of agreement; if you agree, explain why, and then thoughtfully further the conversation.

Requirements:

Post a substantive response to the prompt by the first deadline shown in the weekly overview text.
Engage in discussion with peers about their original posts to exchange ideas, information, and perspectives that continue through the second deadline shown in the weekly overview text.

Posts and responses made after the academic week will not count toward your grade.
