For this round of C4T, I chose the blog Two Writing Teachers. My first comment was on a post called Biographies: Making Connections by Dana Murphy, which was about the use of biographies in education. The post also detailed the subtle nuances that go into writing a nonfictional biography such as the ability to create a gripping story while still maintaining the truth. My comment consisted of me congratulating Mrs. Murphy on the use of biographies as reading is a sadly dying pass time.
The second comment was on a post titled Note-Taking: A Writing Genre Worthy of a Curriculum of Its Own by Anna Gratz Cockerille. The post itself consisted of a description of the types of note-taking and their ratings of use. It also detailed a plan with which to teach the skill of note-taking to students of any age group, and my comment essentially stated my enthusiasm for the entire process. I have found that the skill of taking notes is one that many college Freshman must pick up quickly in order to prevent a poor grade.
