Engl: 112 Final Post

The internet tools that I learned with this class were ones I have never used before. the AND or OR was completly new to me. The blog helped me also stay organized with posting my propoasl and outline for my literacy paper, even though my paper didn't follow it at all. The del.icio.us bookmarks, saved me, I am horrible at writing things down, and this account let me bookmark the page and also leave notes to myself for each link. The class wiki was nice, because you could look at what other people had wrote and what they thought about certain internet tools. Overall, I learned to use internet tools that I will continue to use, even with doing a simple search!

Engl: 112 Literacy Proposal

Most authors write books pertaining to a certain age group, Judy Blume has written many books, for a variety of ages, picture books, chapter books, and adult books. What were her reasons for writing books for numerous age groups? Some of Judy Blume’s characters were based about her family members. Her books she felt she could relate to when she was the age that the book targets. As well as tragic events that occurred in her life that helped influence her to write her books. I am familiar with Judy Blume’s books because I read them growing up, usually more than once. By using the Judy Blume website, I am able to learn more about Judy Blume, her books, and her reasons of writing her books. I also am going to use a teacher website that has a biography, criticism, and lesson plans, about Judy Blume’s books. This is to help show how many people have been touched by Judy Blume, and their various ages. For this paper I anticipate researching it for another week, then writing a rough draft.
