Self Evaluation

After writing this argumentative essay, I've noticed how strongly I truly do feel about the religion being put back into schools. It would just be better for society. Some of the strengths in t his essay would have to be the examples I used like Columbine and Virginia Tech. Those incidents are not only facts, but it appeals to peoples emotions (pathos) since it was such a devistating time for many. The logic that I put it about freedom of speech is one of my strengths as well. As for my weaknesses, my rebuttles could have been a little better as well as contradicting them. I could have added some court dates to make the essay a little more true. I honestly loved this class. Yes, there were times where there was a lot of homework involved and a lot of things to do for a portfolio, but after doing them, I realized it only helped with the actual essay and some of them were fun. Besides the work, the actual class is fun to go to becuase we are always having a good time, either laughing or debating. It is not just a blah class that you get nothing out of at the end. I have learned a lot in this class and am going to miss it.
