Today we discussed our short case study papers together in groups. Personally, for my own writing process it wasn’t all that helpful. Most of the constructive criticisms that I received and those that I gave were suggestions that details be added and main points be elaborated on. These were obvious critiques in light of the limits of the first paper. That said, I definately liked the idea of sharing our work with each other and anticipate that we will benefit from each other’s comments when there’s more to comment on. And beginning the process did elicit good questions from the class about what some of the expectations are for the final paper. But this process is somewhat difficult for me and, in fact, I don’t think I did very well on this first paper. I kept wanting to approach it linearly and build as I go instead of laying out main ideas with few details attached…but of course, all my papers tend to be too long…perhaps because I get lost in the details. So this will be a stretching exercise for me.
