ENC 1101 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Procrastination, Sherman Alexie
Document Summary
Literacy: the ability to read, speak and comprehend a language in multiple understandings. Writing: the process of forming words onto paper to represent an idea, thought, or belief. Genre: the type of writing or language in terms of ow, plot, and common characteristics. Composition: a collection of writings centered around an idea. My ethnicity is multicultural and i feel that that gives me an upper hand in learning new languages and helps me become more interested in them and my pursuit of literacy in other forms. My gender being female i believe makes me more open to poetry and softer kinds of literature because i don"t shy away from emotion. My age is at a delicate stage where i am making cognitive bounds and learning very quickly so it also helps my pursuit of literacy by having a brain that stays focused.
