When I began this class, I thought that I knew quite a bit about Critical Thinking. However, as it progressed it soon became clear that I knew far less that I thought. This class has shown me how to take my personal skills, and adapt them to fit each type of writing. It has also taught me how to take my personal situations and form them into different styles of writing. For example, the first cause and effect piece was a basic narrative formed into a different style. When we worked on the third and forth pieces, the use of transition words helped a lot.
