Reading our paper's Aloud
Reading our paper's aloud in the conferences was very interesting to me. I have not had to do this before in previous writing classes. At first it was kind of weird reading it aloud, but once I got further into my paper I felt more comfortable. I think that reading it aloud is very beneficial to you as a writer. It allows for pier review not only from your teacher but also fellow classmates. Everyone was very engaged and helpful in giving advice and pointing you in the right direction. I thought it was also convenient because by reading it aloud, you are able to pick up on certain mistakes throughout the paper and pin point what you may have done wrong. Over all I think that the conferences and reading aloud is a successful technique in improving one's writing.

Full-fledged agreement on getting more and more comfortable as you get into your paper. As I started reading the pressure lightened up. You just get into your idea and sink into the fluency of it. That is also how I found my mistakes, by the disruptions of that fluency when reading. This was definitely a rare practice, but a very helpful one. Your paper came out very nice and personal, helping the audience to relate to your claim a lot easier on top of the fact that it was so well-connected.
