Lauren Angulo

Blog 1 ::: Online interaction vs. Face to face setting

Your writing on Online Interaction vs. Face to face setting was enjoyable to read. In the first paragraph when you discussed how personalities are perceived, you brought up many variables that are easy to pass by. You did a great job covering the topic too. I like that you addressed more then just one of the writing prompts to do this. Along with the supporting citations, I think doing it that way gave your writing more depth and a more thorough content.


Blog 2 ::: A world without His foundation?

I loved how you introduced your writing with that quote from the book. Not only does it tell us where your writing is headed, but it is good initial support for the statements and opinions further along in your writing. As you started getting into your personal beliefs and experiences, you used them as a great example, while keeping the general mood fair and unbiased. Overall I agree with you, a person's moral values depend on the individuals.

Blog 1 ::: Expressing Ourselves Through Writing

I love that you kept this writing fairly simple and to the point. You argued on a couple of points but argued them well and supported them with great quotes for the text which made the writing easy and enjoyable to read. All of the optimism you lend towards online classes, specifically this writing course, added a great touch of personality too. I found it was a great way to conclude the writing.


Blog 2 ::: Who is God? And can we be good without Him?

When we were given the writing prompt "Can you be good without God", I found difficulty in the beginning of my writing because the definition of both God and good are so open-ended. I like that you the attempt to tackle the various definitions of the terms, most specifically God, before addressing the main question of whether or not we can be good without Him. Your overall writing has great structure, flow, and voice. It had a strong opinion that I felt I could foresee before the concluding paragraph and though my opinions on the topic did not agree with you, I feel you did a great job keeping the paper from getting preachy in any way.
