Chapter 1 is an interesting topic talking about regular human thinking connecting to our everyday lives and not just in writing. When we tend to think about certain thing we tend to extend our thoughts for a future cause. Also questioning our assumptions and evidence in our critical thinking. As in the book about the florida case of how there most be a justification for demanding a photo identification. For most obvious reasons is national security but for the most obvious reasons of refusal is relgious beliefs. So the argument may continue discussion of how it threatens national security. For example of real terrorists covered there face but were hiding certain devices that are a threat. Thats why we have to think critical.
Chapter 2 is generally talking about how to read and write an essay. Skimming can be a way of finding the main ideas but reading the whole passage is good idea to understand it. Also paraphrase the passage also is a difference becuase you can correctly give credit to the author but not properly cite your source.

me, myself, and i
My name is yafet i am currently in my second year at nova. I luv playing soccer and being active. I tend to be really loud because being quiet isnt really showing yourself to the world. In this course i want to extend my learning in english from 111 and continue to learn how to write essays, etc.
I want to learn how to write great resumes for future reference when your applying for serious jobs. This blog can really help us put our thoughts to work and let our minds go. We tend to learn more as we write and get opinions from other peers. So this blog is a good experience for everyone to learn from one other and gain knowledge.
I just hope in this blog i can gain knowledge on how to deliever a great essay and how to go in depth in writing. The critical thinking is one type of subject i favored because it relates to what we do everyday. Also presenting evidence and the assumptions. As it says in the book "when we reread a draft we have written, we read it with a skeptical frame of mind."
