Honors BritLit Introductory Questions

1. What are your thoughts on writing? Writing has usually been something that I do not really enjoy. This may be because most of the things I have to write are usually History essays assigned by the school. AP History did not help my love for writing very much.

2. What are your thoughts on reading? The last book that I read was for the schools summer reading program, Faith of Our Founding Fathers. I don't really like reading text books; books with interesting stories or different comics seem more fun to read. My favorite children's book was The Hungry Caterpillar.

3. What are your thoughts on technology? I think that technology has a lot of good features like the Internet or video games. I am a gamer and I am horribly afraid that I will get hacked by a random 12-year old over Xbox Live. I do think that things like Gmail and Facebook are great ways to stay in touch with friends and family, but I barely use either of those sites.

4. What are your thoughts on learning? I do not like science projects or ridiculously long essays; those things are a real hassle. I am not too negative towards tests and quizzes unless I have no idea about when the occur. I'm not really sure how I learn best, but studying while exercising seems to help a little bit.

5. Why do you want to take this course? I originally didn't want to take it because I was unsure of how an online class would work or how well I'd do in it. I did have some thoughts about switching classes, but I was really convinced by Mrs. Baniaga to take it. So I guess I'll be taking it for the challenge; I'm pretty sure my dad wants to see me struggle with these kinds of classes.
