DD5HW2 Proofreading

Proofreading 

When working on Project #1 was challenging because I had to think about the readers and make it understandable for all audiences. I had rewrite my instructions may times because I was to informal when writing or to confusing. What help me write the instructions was working the application like a begin and answer the questions as I go so I can cover everything when exploring the application. I had to stop assuming the audience knew what I was talking about and had experience like myself. 

Another thing I learn from doing Project #1 was Google Drawing. I didn't know about this application until the project and its a great editing tool, which I'm glad I explored. I would use this tool more doing the school year when working with presentations along with my application Google Form. Using these tools open my door to more experience on the computer and different applications. 

I also need to learn to slow down my writing and brain so they can work together. My brain is working faster than I type and the reason why I had many grammar mistakes. 

Examples of bad sentences: 

1. This the screen you should see once you log into your Gmail account.

Revised sentence: This is the screen you should see, once you are logged in into your gmail account.

2. When you click on “Send” this should up.

Revised sentence: When you click on "Send", this should appear on your screen.

Writing Grammatically Correct Sentences and Choosing the Right Words and Phrases  I struggle the most with sentence structure and grammar, learning these rules and reviewing might help better my writing.  1. Usage of commas.  Comma are misused in sentences because of breaking up two independent clause by a comma, or not list correctly. Link words like and, or, nor, but, for, so, or, yet with a comma can help the flow of the sentence and the structure.  Ronane State Community College, gives a great guide how to use comma in all sentences, along with link words, and the Do's and Don't of using commas. https://www.roanestate.edu/owl/Commas.html The rule that help me understand commas if re-read the sentence and see if the sentence can stand alone or does it need a comma for it make sense.  2. Usage of a semicolon.  I never really learn the use of a semicolon, or understand that importance. I normally let spell check on the computer fix my mistakes. I felt it w

DD10HW4 Chapter 18

4 element of Chapter 18 and how they will help better complete Project #3:  Tone  Making sure everything flows together since everyone has a different writing style when working together. Making it sound professional and presentable for the final project.  Research  Finding creditable sources and making sure the research correlates with the topic we are talking about.  Context  The overall information is correct and important to report.  Format  Making sure everyone is on the same page and we work together to make the final project great.

Everyone needs to reach out and do their part along making sure we are all on the same page to complete this project. Everyone should
