Hello, I am Taylor Brady and I am 21 years old. I am currently a Psychology major and plan to transfer to a 4 year college when done at Sinclair Community College. I have included my research proposal, research essay, visual analysis and a piece of writing from a previous semester.
My research proposal is about why college tuition should be lowered so everyone has an equal opportunity of pursuing their goal. The research essay was the hardest piece of writing this semester because of the negative and positive views of my topic and trying not to write a biased paper. My research essay is about whether or not marijuana should be legalized recreationally and medically throughout the United States. I believe I did well on the paper educating the reader to both sides of the argument while diving deep into what marijuana is and the factual evidence provided of the pros and cons provided from research. My visual analysis I found quite easy to write. It was a picture of a man being crushed by student loans that had piled up from college. I think I did an accurate depiction of describing what my visual was to the audience. My last piece of writing that I included was from my previous semester while taking general psychology. I talked about a music video produced and written by Childish Gambino and what the message conveys in his song. I enjoyed writing this piece because I am a fan of Childish Gambino and his work and finding hidden messages that he showed throughout the video. I found it quite interesting to listen to and write about. Overall I thought I did fairly well in this class since I had not done such an in-depth research paper and as well as a visual analysis. I learned a lot while taking this course and enjoyed the writing we had to complete. I now know how to find reliable sources that provide factual evidence and write a strong supporting thesis. I feel that I deserve an A or B in this course. |
