Blog #10 Difference between blog & email essay
Reflecting on blog #3’s email and the email I am writing are two completely different papers. They are both talking about complaining about your grade. The blog was an email to your friend and the email etiquette essay was to your professor. When you are writing to your friend you can talk in slang, but when you are writing to your professor you need to be precise with what you are talking about. I cursed in the paper to my friend, but I would never think about cursing to my professor. The email etiquette essay was a lot harder because you it required a lot more thought. You need to make sure you had a thesis statement, a good middle paragraph, and a conclusion for your reader to know what you want to happen. The email etiquette takes a lot more thought. A journal is really just off the top of your head nothing to hard or serious. You know the email etiquette essay is serious, when you have to go to the writing center to get your paper checked before you can turn it in. The blog is 300 words with whatever you feel like writing about the topic that is given to you, on the email essay you had to construct a short essay in a way that was not confusing. You didn’t want to repeat, have incorrect grammar, no contractions, basically a lot of things to make your paper bad. Like I previously stated the biggest difference is that in one your writing to your friend, and the other your professor who has the ball in his hands if you are going to pass the class or not! Lol. Definitely a different type of mind when you go into writing these two different papers, but you can easily adapt to whichever one your doing.
