Ads and Magazines

 This week we learned about Persuasive writing we saw how important is for the marketing experts to convince you to either buy their products or use their services. There's a lot of ways to create a persuasive text since the Ads that you see on the TV or the pop-ups you get whenever you go online are not the only way to convince the public, you can also see magazines as a way to not just entertain but also inform.

As part of the activities for this week, we had to create a magazine and share with the class an ad that was memorable. I'm not actually into marketing, but I like funny, silly things like Dad jokes or things that are not meant to be funny because they're bad, but you can't help but laugh because it sucks.  That's exactly the reason why I like Open English advertisement campaign. These ads are not long, they don't have a meaningful message that changes your life, but it makes you laugh because the man in the add is beyond salvation due his lack of awareness or basic common sense.

Subject-by-subject vs Point-by-point

  Subject-by-subject vs Point-by-point This week we learned about other methods of writing.

With a subject-by-subject structure we take topic A and topic B, we produce our introduction and the first pargraph is in charge of focusing on topic A, once the points are made we moved on to the next paragraph that will focus only in topic B, until we get to the conlusion. On Point-by-point, we take topic A and topic B, we produce the introduction, then the first pargraph will have topic A and B together making a point but it will focus in idea 1, after we finish that point we move on to the next paragraph and with topic A and B to make another point or more under idea 2. It might feel confusing at first but practice makes perfect, and that's how I wrote this two texts: Does freedom come with a price tag? ...

Final Entry

  Final Words During this semester I have learned how to make multiple essays, by using different outline methods and multiple approaches in the development of the ideas. I'm certain that I still have a lot to learn and a lot to practice when it comes to the initial stages of a writing process, however I'm now in the right path, with methods like the Venn Diagram, the clustering method, etc. When it comes to the actual composition, methods like subject by subject or Essays using cause and effect methods are for far my favorites. The constant feedback that I received from my professor has been constructive and clear. I have learned to organize my ideas' through a pre-writing process followed by a drafting process that allows me to correct or add more to my main ideas.
