Use your process journal and the stages of your project saved on your personal page as you reflect on what you've learned: --about your topic? what surprised you? --about writing? what steps of this process were especially difficult or rewarding for you? --about teaching? do you see yourself using multigenre with your future students? why or why not? Please post your reflection at the top of your personal page. After finally completing my multigenre project I've learned a lot. I discovered what a BMI is and how its calculated. I discovered how it can effect the lives of people, physically and emotionally. I learned about the science behind obesity. I was surprised about so much throughout the project. I was especially surprised about the effects obesity can have on a person and the people around them. I was also surprised about how much fun I had making this project. I've also feel this project has helped my writing to grow. I really feel I captured the persona of Barry Wayneton and wrote a diary entry that some may actually mistake for real. I think this was a very good way to show how important diversity is in presentations. I would definitely use this as a teaching tool to show students how important it is to effectively combine genres that represent many multiple intelligences
