Final Reflection

  I think my writing abilities grew through this semester thanks to ENG 201. Even though it was difficult at the beginning because I was working during the 4 workshops, I did the best to complete them. they help me a lot on how to write and cited my work, this was something I couldn't do at the beginning of the semester. Mainly because I came back after 8 years of being away from college. As you all know, I am not a very good English speaker, but, I tried my best when participating in this, or other classes. Before, john jay I did a speech at another college, I have to thank the professor at that time.  However, now I have to say a big thank you to my English professor because she made a very interesting and comprehensive class this semester. On the other hand, my abilities in research are greater than they were before. From the Memo paper to the research paper, all of them help me and push me to be better at getting as much information as possible. Thank you English...

                WHAT ARE WE EATING? PRO AND CONS OF GMOs FOODS.                     Anderson Lopez December 6, 2020 Professor: Matyakubova ENG 201-94 Understanding the Foundation.   GMOs, short for genetically modified organisms, are subject to a lot of controversy.

Most GMO crops are used in food for animals like cows, chickens, and fish. They are also used to make ingredients that are then used in food products like cereal, snack chips, and vegetable oils. Even though you will not find many GMO fruits or vegetables in the produce section of your grocery store, GMOs are a common part of today’s food supply.       ...

  The article is about a woman coming out of prison after a long sentence. Even though her experience inside the prison, she came to become a Ph.D. from NYU. A good question will be how is the justice system is working to rehabilitate people or helping them to adapt to society. A good take away from the article will be her determination to succeed in life, she didn't quit right after she gets rejected at Harvard, she kept fighting to graduated from NYU.

One, that I think cannot be integrated are youtube or any other social media, because students can be distracted more often.
