I wanted to educate the world on how spiders can help the world as pest control. What inspired me was my best friend because i was asking her what would be a good animal and ofc she said spiders. I didnt think about doing spiders at first because I have a great big fear of spiders. Some of the tools that i used were my background knowledge that i knew and i also asked other people opinion and looked some facts up on google. The writing process for me was a bit uneasy because I had to learn more and more about the one animal I have a big fear of. Learning on how they adapt and how they grow and live kinda scared me a little while writing. The product went through a couple drafts because at first I didn't want to write about spiders and once I switched my animal I had to really get into detail. Some of the changes I decided to ignore was adding more details on how they're pest control because I felt like I already had enough talking about what they prey on. The hard part about writing this essay was the fact that I have a horrible fear of spiders so having to write about them and learn more than I already know was just a little bit uneasy.

DCA reflection
The way I came up with this topic was I thought that being a part of a team is like being in a community. You have to work together and communicate with one another. So I thought using my job would be the best thing to write about. My writing process wasn't really that hard only because I had so many different situations that I've been through at work from working there for a year and a half. I have a lot of experience with fast food in general. I didn't have any issues from any outside influences. Writing my peer review draft took me about 2 hours only because I knew once I read what the topic of the essay was about I knew that a million ideas would pop into my head. My revision process was good. I enjoyed the feedback I received. Some specific feedback about not having run on sentences. That change I made off of that feedback is I just took the sentence and broke it up and rephrased it a little better. I didn't choose to ignore any feedback. The easiest thing about writing this essay was thinking about what my topic was gonna be and the information I was gonna add into the essay.

Do you immediately see logos at work in this article? (In other
words, do you see the author using logic, reasoning, and/or
evidence in their article?) If so, where/how? If not, what might
help the author get more logos? yes, in the article the author states AI text-generation developemets have included autocomplete for online searches and predictive texting. enter was rome into a google search and your given a list of choices like was rome built in a day. type ple into a text message and your otffered please and plenty. these tools inject themselves into our writing endeauors without being invited, incesstantly asking us to fallow their suggestions.
Do you immediately see ethos at work in this article? (In other
words, does the author do anything to establish that they are
credible or trustworthy?) If so, where/how? If not, what might
help the author get more ethos? yes, as a part of the reaserch for my new book on the effects of AI on human writting, I survyed young adults in the U.S. and eruope about a host of issues related to those effects. They reported a litany of concerns about how AI tools can undermine what they do as writers.
Do you immediately see pathos at work in this article? (In other
words, does the author do anything to evoke emotion in the
audience or to appeal to a sense of value that the audience has?)
If so, where/how? If not, what might help the author get more
pathos? yes, A high school student in Britain echoed the same concern about individual writing style when describing Grammarly: “Grammarly can remove students’ artistic voice. … Rather than using their own unique style when writing, Grammarly can strip that away from students by suggesting severe changes to their work.”
Do you immediately see kairos at work in this article? (In other
words, does the author do anything to evoke a sense of urgency
or relevance in their article?) If so, where/how? If not, what might
help the author get more kairos?
yes, When undertaking school writing assignments, ideally there is ongoing dialogue between teacher and student: Discuss what the student wants to write about. Share and comment on initial drafts. Then it’s time for the student to rethink and revise. But this practice often doesn’t happen. Most teachers don’t have time to fill a collaborative editorial – and educational – role. Moreover, they might lack interest or the necessary skills, or both.

first SLO- yes i am making more progress. I have tried to make it clear and simple for the audience whena new paragraph is starting, what the paragraph is about and when then paragraph is about to end. I also make sure that my essays have the full requirements inclusing introduction, body paragraphs and conclusions.
second SLO-yes, when I do my reflection I try to be honest with myself on how long the writting process was or how u came up with my details just so when i look ack at my reflections i can see if there has been a diffrence and see if the deffrence is a good or bad diffrence.
third SLO- yes, when i start a new assignment i try to change up the ways that i do thing only to explore the many options of writting that i have. when I do look. at my reflections I try to learn off of what i did the last time i wrote an essay.
fourth SLO- yes, i feel that everyday. leaarn something new about the english language and how it can be used.
fifth SLO-yes when im reading something i try to break it down and understand it to the best of my ability.

RA Reflection
The way I identified the appeals by using the context that the author gives. You can see where an appeal is being used by looking at how the author is writing. My writing process for this essay was a little bit more difficult than any other. It took me two days altogether to write the draft because I spaced my time out when I was writing. I wanted to give my mind a break so I wrote half one day and the rest the next day. My revision process was easy but hard on my end. I did self feedback and it was easy because I already knew how it was written and what the essay was gonna be. The hardest part was that I felt as if the feedback was not pure. When I'm giving myself my own feedback it feels as if I'm not seeing the bad things about the essay as easily as a different person with a different perspective would have seen the bad things. Something that was hard about writing this essay was not being able to put my opinion in and remembering that I can't use my opinion. Most essays I have written have been based on how I feel about the topic which makes writing the essay much easier. Some co-productive forces that affected me during the writing process was that I wasn't able to self reflect. I also didn't feel as if I had good feedback or enough information.
CTA brainstorming:
when people talk about AI they normally think towards the AI helping in educated ways. everyone is try to porve why AI is so smart and should be used everywhere. People also disagree and want to get rid of AI.
the postion im gonna take is getting rid of AI. the reason is because i do agree on the fact that AI cant take over your brain or can make your brain rot. Thats the main reaspon why i choose to say no to AI.
CTA Reflection
Something that I had to face was me not just focusing on the side that I agree with because I did want to give the reader a little bit of both sides. Another thing that I had to face was m not just focusing on one piece of evidence or repeating the same information that I was giving the reader. My writing process was almost the same as every essay, I started off by reading the articles and going through and picking out information to put in the essay. OnceI had the information i wanted i would go back one by one and would get more details about the information that i'm writing about. It took me a couple days to write the first draft of this essay. Some of the feedback that I had received was about my thesis. I made some changes to my thesis statement to make it more clear what my thesis was. The hardest part about this essay was trying to make sure that both sides that were being debated were both evenly talked about.
