Reflection

I liked this project because it made me think about how science was connected between different rhetorical texts that we not very similar. It let me analyze the texts to find a common value between the both of them even though my texts were about completely different things, one was about a chimpanzee and the other was about a new fabric to keep people cool. When I first read the two articles I did not see a lot in common about them but as I thought about it, I was able to see how they were both connected. I found it interesting to write about because no one had ever compared these two rhetorical texts before in the same way I had and I found it cool that I was able to be the first person to do this. I learned that there are multiple values in science and it was hard to just stick to one because they are all connected with each other.

If I could change something, I would not have done a podcast because I don’t think that podcasts are interesting and many times can bore an audience. I may have done a video instead because videos are usually more interesting than a podcast would be. Other than that, I thought that the workshop in which the class read/listened to my project was very helpful because it helped me see what I could improve on in my project and helped me see things that I couldn’t even see myself. Overall, I enjoyed this project.
