In this collection people will witness strengths, weaknesses and the potential; for a further analysis of the them. The strength of my project could be my creative view on the issue of technology while an issue that was not presented in these pieces was of what this problem could cause in the future. Moreover, it is ironic how these various genres are based on the opinion of teens overusing the internet, but this exam consisted of hours upon hours on the computer browsing the internet for research and using google docs. This main theme is very unique to the author because the author of these pieces is a teen and whereas a significant majority of teens would argue that technology is necessary and that they are not abusing and overusing technology. Furthermore one issue that was not discussed in the various genres was how this general problem could potentially affect generations later on in the near and distant future. This specific issue was close to being discussed but it was felt that there would be not enough information to fully complete a new piece without being a factor of repetition. Additionally if there had been given more time to work on this it would have given more of a chance to complete in depth research which would have made the informational and non fiction piece more informative and interesting. The extension of time would have also given individuals more time to breathe and allow thoughts to flow, but in turn the extension of time would allow individuals to procrastinate instead of working exceptionally hard in a short period of time. To conclude there were strengths and a possibility of more information to be included in the final piece.

 

The absolute foremost genre that was written in this collection would have to be the informational piece. This is the best articulated writing piece because of the significant amount of practice the author had with essays and how to organize information, the poem and the blog was out of her comfort zone which reflected in the final piece. The most difficult piece of text was the blog because there was no time were in class it was taught how to lay out a blog post and there are multiple ways to write a blog post. This was a challenging aspect but with research and previous knowledge the blog post was able to be created. In addition the animated piece was a new form that was unfamiliar in English context. However the author had previous experience with creating animations and so she applied her skills and attempted to create a visual piece that aided in the audience's understanding, the final copy of the animation is pleasing to watch and will give the audience a cute way to observe the desired theme. Struggles were overcome by determination to understand how to complete unfamiliar forms of text while also applying skills that were learned in previous classes.
