Daphne Young:
I think my group has created a great system for group assignments, we do everything on Google Docs and whoever does their assignment last will submit everyone’s responses onto Blogs at Baruch. This method helps keep me on top of assignments since I know my group is depending on me to do it on time. One thing I need to work on is participation in class, other than being asked to share my thoughts during large discussions I have not raised my hand to participate. For written assignments, I think I am doing well with homework assignments however I did submit my first essay late. For the future I need to pace myself when writing my papers so I have enough time to get everything done.
Jiwoo Han:
I completely agree with Daphne. Our group does not have a problem with online group assignment. We always did all the assignments on time so far. But, regarding my assignments, I certainly need to work on everything to improve my grade. For essay assignment, I just got my essay back in last class and I have to make every possible effort on the last essay to raise my grade. Also, what I have to do is participation in class. I have to take part in the discussion frequently. For free-writing and class exercises, these are a little tough for me to do. I think I need more time than other students when doing something in class. I think I need to go to Writing Center to get some help with this. Finally, I also need to work on the writing for the final exam. With the format we used for midterm exam, I think I can practice enough to raise my grade.

I agree with her. We made a great system for our online assignments and our group has done our assignments very well so far. Daphne’s online assignments are always interesting and well-organized. But, one thing she has to do for her improvement is participation in class discussion as she mentioned. It might be hard at first, but it gradually will be natural. Generally, she is doing really well in class.

Susanna always put her assignment first in our group on Google Docs. Her assignments are very clear and to the point. For the participation in class, she sometimes takes part in class discussions. And I had a chance to look at her essay in class, the topic was very interesting. I think she is doing well in class.

Jiwoo: I also need to participate more in class, sometimes I forget that it is an English class and there is no wrong interpretation. As for your essay assignments, the writing center is a great resource that Baruch provides for the students. You can also think about asking peers or friends to read your essay as well.

Daphne- Your homework assignments are always well thought out and well written. I think that you should feel confident in sharing your ideas and interpretations of the text in our class setting as well!
Jiwhoo- I also can struggle when having assignments in class and a limited amount of time to write my thoughts down in a concise matter. I think having the weekly quizzes on the readings are helpful because it allows us to practice analytical questions in a timely matter.
