So on February 25 , i went to my first ever Writing Workshop. This workshop was about comparing and contrasting , which i found very funny. The reason why is because for my English class i have to write a four to five page report on comparing and contrasting different pieces of work and film. When I first got the homework, I was so lost and in the state of panic. I didn’t even know where to start. So I was actually really looking forward to this workshop. Maybe it could help me with planing my paper and help me with the task of comparing and contrasting. Not only with just the comparing and contrasting papers or things in general, but being able to pull a thesis statement out of the finding i grained. So when the workshop started i realized it wasn’t crowded, which was prefect for me . So the professor started off with two ads and she gave us a Venn diagram and we filled it out with the similarities and differences. Then we tried to pull out thesis statements from the diagram. But I think the most or I guess that best technique/skill that I took from the class is that if the differences are east to identify, one should emphasize an important similarity. And if the similarities are easy to identify, one emphasize an important difference.
