Title: Reflection on Creative Writing Process and Impact of Craft Elements
Question 1
At the beginning of the semester, we looked at different ways that writers find their inspiration or subject matter. You observed five “somethings” of your choice for the Alien Anthropology assignment, and for the Creator’s Subject Part 1 assignment, you chose four “somethings” that connected with culture/history, a liminal space or transition in your life, a place, and a social issue that you feel passionate about.
How did any or all of this work its way into your Final draft? What did you use–directly or indirectly–from those earlier lessons and assignments in this Final draft? Or, which of the categories influenced your Final draft the most, and why? Question 2
Think back to your Creator’s Subject Part 1 writing. In that assignment, you created metaphors by connecting a “something” with a bigger concept: culture or history, liminality, a place, and a personal passion (there, a social issue you feel strongly about). What metaphor(s) did you work with for your Final draft of your story or poetry? Your metaphor(s) very likely connect to the theme(s) in your draft. What did you want to say, explore, or illuminate through your story/poetry?
Why is this message or subject important to you and to the readers you want to reach?
Hint: It’s okay if you didn’t originally write with a specific audience in mind, but by the time you write your “final” draft, you should have revised with a good idea of who your preferred readers are (or at least their demographics). Question 3
Name 2 craft elements in your work that give it the most impact, and explain in detail what you were trying to accomplish by using those craft elements the way you did. Name the craft elements, and discuss why you chose to focus your revisions on these specific craft elements. How do they connect back to the message you want to send to your target audience? Elements of craft for fiction writers: plot, setting, point of view, tense, imagery, dialogue, characterization
Elements of craft for poets: rhythm, meter, rhyme, form (also line breaks, enjambment, end stops, etc.), imagery, turns (a.k.a. “voltas”)
Question 4
In general, how did the writing process work for you? What challenges did you face as you wrote and revised? What risks did you take? What did you learn from any “mistakes” you made along the way? How did our class’ focus on creativity and creative thinking help you to overcome the challenges you faced, take those risks, and finish your draft? Question 5
Discuss what creative thinking/innovation skills you learned in this class might be useful or necessary in your academic discipline or career field. What concepts or skills from ENG 226 can you apply in those situations to help you solve problems, answer complicated questions, or innovate new ideas or solutions? (Look through the readings and exercises from the early weeks of our class to find specific ideas, skills, activities, etc., that can help you address this question. This prompt asks you to use both critical and creative skills to apply what you’ve learned in our class to life outside of class. Creative Writing really does build skills beyond storytelling and poetry!) -

“Gendered Workforce: Exploring the Experiences of Women in the Workplace” “Effective Conclusions: Crafting a Strong and Impactful Ending to Your Research Paper”
Students will write a 9-page final paper including the work cited page
Final paper guideline
Title of the paper
Introduction
-the question of your study
-a snapshot of your major findings
Literature review
-Analyse the articles you read about the topic, what they researched, dates when they were done their methods of research, their findings on the topic (quote and reference the readings. Use the literature review to justify your research topic.) This will help with the theoretical framework for your paper.
Methods: Describe the method of research used in your study; describe your sample and how you found the participants
Findings: give detailed description of your data and the major themes out of your data. Note the recurrent themes and issues that emerge as important to the participants. Identify key issues informed by original research questions, and emerging issues raised by the participants. You will have evaluated the content of interview answers and will employ quotes from your interviewees in your text. You may rely on your interviews, as the articles for the class do, for much of your content; however, like our readings you should clarify what the quote exemplifies. I urge you to look closely at the articles you have read in class. The one called “Who protects and serves me?” the one about men undermining women in the military, and the one about secretarial work, nurturing, and the ethic of service. These readings all have qualities you can implement in your paper to document your research (interviews and questionnaires and more). Each introduces the topic and explains the thesis or premise and sampling method. The first two also tie their findings to the theories of many other writers. I don’t expect you to do too much of this; however, I do expect you will at least make connections and cite the texts and articles assigned for the class where appropriate.
Government statistics on women’s issues such as pay will be helpful if that is your focus and if you want to make a chart to clarify your research do. However, because charts take up a lot of space, please don’t make them part of your total page count.
Recommendations if any, you may recommend further research on the subject or policy recommendations
You will have to analyze your data just to organize and present it as a group to class. However, the final paper will focus on your ultimate analysis of your findings and this paper will do more than present a summary, but rather offer insights into what difficulties women experience in their work situations and how they are able to reconcile those compromises with the benefits the job offers (I am not assuming this is the main thing you will address it is just one aspect of focus). Then add a conclusion to the paper.
So again use the articles you have been reading to get ideas for how to present your information and have a clear purpose organizing your content.
Style
The paper should be double spaced, please use 12 point font, thesis should be in bold
