Third Assessment Reflection

The third English assessment is about academic writing, in which students need to present a portfolio that contains four pieces of academic writing plus one reflection blog entry. The topic of the essay is about technological issue and I took a long time to really decide what’s my topic will be. After thinking much about the topic I finally decide that I going to wrote about Internet browsers. The most interesting things I’ve learned from my topic are that the Firefox 3 address bar feature is hyped the “Awesome bar” and that the Google have a comic about Google Chrome’s features. In the process of making the academic writing, I’ve learned to create a better writing using topic sentences and a strong thesis. I’ve never put up much thought about those elements when writing an essay before.
My biggest and most fatal failure in this assessment is my unorganized time management. I’ve lost crucial feedback from draft collecting because I worked out all the writings nearing the deadline of the project. Well, I’ve never been able to manage my time on a large project like this and I’ve always ended up with a last minute rush. I believed that if I manage my time, like setting up milestones maybe, the outcomes of this assessment will be much better.
