For this class the grade I believe I deserve is an A. The reason that I believe I deserve this grade is because based off the contract, I have met all expectations as well as went above. For each project, I put in a lot of effort. I also believe that I took advantage of all of the "above and beyond" options offered for each project. I also attended class regularly and participated in every class. I only missed one class meeting and that was due to an illness. Furthermore, I have everything set up on my Weebly account properly, in an organized, clear, manner. I believe I deserve an A because I followed the contract as well as going above the requirement.

Thinking about myself as a “technological” person is interesting. I was never too savvy with computers, but after my course experiences as Rowan thus far I have found many technologies extremely useful for writing. One technology I find very useful and feel most comfortable with is Twitter. Prior to Intro to Writing Arts I just viewed Twitter as a worthless social networking site but now I find it extremely intriguing. I find it very easy to research and connect with writers who have the same interests as me. It is very easy to collaborate on Twitter by simply following hashtags about a certain topic. After being introduced to Wordpress.com last semester I also found value in blogging. Though I am still not completely confident with this technology I love the structure and basis of this writing space. I like that you can archive and connect with others. More specifically though, I like that blogs can be as short or as long as you like, they are dated and organized, and they also can include videos, pictures, etc. I still struggle with little things that come along with blogging but I have definitely found myself interested in other people’s blogs as well as interested in creating my own. Overall, I feel like I now view technologies as major tools that can enhance my writing in many ways.
