After reading these chapters I have learned the demands of writing in college, writing effectively, and how to reflect what I wrote. To start off chapter 5 begins to talk about the demands for college and what writers are expected to be able to do. It shows the different aims in a good writer. This chapter really just shows what is going to expected while at college.
The next chapter goes into more detail about understanding a rhetorical situation. Its aims are based on Ethos, Pathos, and Logos. These are the three elements that are necessary for any form of communcation. This chapter explains each of these elements and how to use them effectively. I see some examples which are effective for those who do not really understand the whole idea of ethos, pathos, and logos. Sometimes it can be challenging to write a paper based off this although it is the only way to write effectively.
The last chapter is about reflecting. There are many components and keys to reflections that are needed to write an effective reflection paper. I like how this chapter shows an effective reflection paper by Sue Kunitomi Embrey and has side notes off to the side to explain some of her components. In all I have learned bits and pieces in each chapter. I never knew a reflection paper could have so much to it than I thought possible.
