BLOG 3

The first blog in which i read was by sue kwon and I was very impress how she was able to explain the role of woman in society in Ancient Greece. I learned plenty on how woman were treated in society during this time and how they were affected by it. Sue was able to explain both plays, Antigone by Sophocles and Medea by Euripides very clearly and was able to mention the critical points where woman in this time in society were treated. As I was reading the post I couldn’t help but notice the how she also put her own take on the double standards between the women and the men, it is always good hear an opinion from someone writing their own piece and instead of the piece being just factual. Personally what I learned from her is that when you are writing a piece when it comes to literature is to try to keep it and clear as possible and try not to get too broad on the topic at hand. The professor wouldn’t want me to do that, and then they’ll see that I’m all over the place. Of course also have clearer thesis statements also I feel I get in depth with it when it should just go straight to the point plain and simple. I feel the greatest strength in the paper I just wrote was that I often know how to transition from one paragraph fairly well and need to improve that but be a little more clearer in that aspect if I want to get a better grade in this course. I feel that it was not put together well and I wish I would have taken better care of it more and revised it and look through my own errors. If I were to do anything better on the next assignment it would be to use more evidence to back up claims on the topic, and choose a better choice of words this way I won’t set myself up for disappointment on the next paper which will be given very soon. Last but most certainly not least I need to correct my grammar mistakes on the topic because no one is going to do it for me other than myself. Overall I feel I learned immensely how to improve my paper for the next time it is assign to the class I will be more prepared to really dig deep and get a better grade because I really motivated to rectify the mistakes I made on the last paper.
