This was my first journal entry, and I feel it was one of my best. I understood this article the most and found it thoroughly interesting. It also helped me better form an understanding of literacy.
I think this was one of my best journals. Even though it was a bit of a complicated read, I was beginning to better comprehend the articles after rereading any I had a hard time understanding. I think this is one that I took some of the most time on.
On this journal I feel I could have done better. I did not completely understand the article but I also did not put as much effort into understanding it as I did with some others. From what I did understand though, I felt like I learned quite a bit about discourse communities and what ones I may be a part of.
On this journal I really did have difficulty understanding the article. I read it multiple times, bit still only got a broad understanding of what it was talking about. I tried my best though to analyse what I was supposed to get out of it and feel like it came out pretty good for a journal I hardly understood.
