During the course of the quarter, I feel that I have progressed somewhat. I’ve gained a lot of knowledge on rhetorical strategies and how to present arguments effectively.
In the writings I have written, I feel that each writing works towards meeting the course goals. Logos, ethos, and pathos were strategies and ideas we were introduced to (if not already in the past) and were built upon throughout the quarter.

In this case, many rhetorical strategies were employed.

This usually was because I never needed to do many revisions in high school and especially since high school was much easier than now. Also, I progressed enough to understand how to use the pathos in one text and turn it into something entirely different yet arguing the same things.
