What was your drafting process like before this class? (7/31)















Before 7/31 my drafting process was pretty different. I would normally write things down as I read. I would then take the main ideas or points of whatever I am reading and there supporting details and put them in a outline form. Once I have put it into a outline form I then start my drafting process.

Rhet Comic















The Rhet comic starts off talking about ethos, pathos and logos. Ethos means ethics or ethical. Pathos means empathy or emotions. And logos means logical. To go into more detail ethos is credibility of the writer.Pathos are the emotions. And logos is the logics or more of the statics point of view. They also talk about Kairos. They also talk about Kalpos. It has two different meanings one meaning is to exact or critical time, season or opportunity. Another definition is due measure proportion or fitness. This comic talks about a lot of other things as well like  Aristotle, Rhetorical analysis and critical reading.

plagiarism













 One of the most important things i learned about plagiarism would be that it could get you in a lot of trouble. If you plagiarize you could get kicked out of school.Depending on the teacher plagiarism could get you in a lot of trouble. If your teacher is nice enough they could just let you rewrite the paper over again.If the teacher is pretty strict about plagiarism then there is a possibility that you might have to talk to the dean of your school or you could get kicked out of school. either way plagiarizing is something you don't want to do...

First two weeks...












 The first two weeks of the Apex summer bridge program have been pretty interesting. I have made a lot of new friends and it has been an adjustment. The first week of classes were pretty rocky because I didn't know what to expect.  The first week of Apex was pretty easy because we didn't get a lot of work. As the day's progress we received more home work that is expected to be due the next day. The second week has been interesting because of the amount of  work that has been given to us. We have also been studying every night  some people stay up to even one in the morning just working on work. There just giving us  a taste of what college is like. The first two weeks at the Apex program has been a real college experience.
