ReplyDeleteI learned how to find out who's point of view it is, and certain ways to categorize them.
ReplyDeleteI learned many new techniques in nonfiction writing like "call to action" "dominant specific language"
ReplyDeleteToday in class, i learned about prognosticating. At the beginning of class, I had absolutly no idea what a prognostic was. Coming out of class I could say "It tells of a future that could happen if you do a certain act. Something like, 'if you work out every day for thirty minutes you can become much more fit.' or something like that" or something like that. Now that I know what it means, I can use it in any nonfiction writing that I may write for... well, the rest of my life.
