On Tuesday we went to the writing center as a class. The writing center is a free service that is there for students that need extra help in their papers. The tutors that are there are mostly college students that are majoring in english. I think that this is a good resource and I'm going to go there when I need help on a paper. Next week I have an appointment to get help with the research proposal paper.

I think I'm going to do autism for my research paper. Since autism is such a wide topic, I'm going to mainly focus on autism in school children. Focus points may be how teachers adapt the classroom, if special assignments are needed, or what type of classroom is best for the child. I chose this topic because it has always fascinated me and I am a special education major. Hopefully this will let me understand autism a little more than I already do.

Overall, I liked the english syllabus. I was glad that it has the point values for all the assignments. This makes it easier to keep track of what my grade is throughout the semester. I also liked that there was an explanation of all the different papers we will write over the semester. It's helpful because it gave me an idea what to expect and what to prepare for.
