Unit 4 Peer Group Review - Amity Connolly

After your reading your blog posts I think you are able to analyze what the reading is about very well. You are able to incorporate this well into your blog posts. An example of this is your blog post “Reap What You Sow” from September 30^th. I also like how you didn’t just stick with our textbook for evidence when writing your blog posts.  I think a good example of this is your blog post “Another Side of the foreign Worker”. In this you went and explored aspects of immigration and not just through the interview, you  research outside of  our textbook.

Something I would suggest is trying to break your sentences up. While not every sentence that is long is a run on, they can still get hard to read. I noticed that a lot of your sentences seemed longer than they had to be. I would suggest that if you notice your using a lot of commas, try to find places where two sentences could be made. It’s not the biggest deal in the world it just makes reading  and understanding easier.

The first blog post I thought of as a “greatest hit” was “Another Side of the Foreign Worker”. I explained already how I liked how you did additional research, but there were other things I liked about this post as well. You explained well what each thing was so the reader wouldn’t be lost. I had no idea what things like a H-1B visa was and I would have been lost had it not been explained. The next blog post I thought of as a “greatest hit” was “Reap What You Sow”. I felt this was a greatest hit because you where able to argue your point with support from several different directions. Also you were also able to defend your arguments with several different readings. Your third post that I would consider a “greatest hit” was “We the People” the reason for my interest in this post is you didn’t give the reader a straight answer, you made them think about it. I liked especially how you asked several questions, giving the reader several things to think about.
