Topic 1 DQ 1Take a moment to reflect on past writing experiences from your academic, personal, or professional
life. Answer the following questions as your initial post. Plan to have 150-200 words.
1. What was writing like for you as a child or young adult? Do you recall any vivid
writing experiences?
2. How do you currently use writing in academic, personal, and professional experiences?
3. How might writing be used in future academic, personal, and professional experiences?
Respond to your peers’ reflections about their own writing experiences, finding similarities and
differences and considering the role of writing in your life now and in the future.
What I can remember how writing, as early as elementary age, was the ability to be creative and
imaginary. Referencing animals to different colors. Making up stories that the mind comes up with that
is fiction or fairy tales. Then, writing in journals, I recall during my time in school that there was a period
that journal writing was mandatory. High school writing became a little intense in which I showed no
interest to.
Currently, I used writing on a daily from academic writing by posting and replying Discussion Questions
to instructors or peers. Since, I started GUC in August 2019, I see myself writing more often. The last
course, PHI-105 I experience my first time writing a persuasive essay. Currently I work as a Human
Resources/Payroll communication through email is frequently use among co-worker, potential
employees or customers. Along with email, I write letters to potential employees of job offers or denial.
Writing will be used often in future academic settings. I am planning that as I keep moving forward that
the writing may be more intense. At times it gives me a little anxiety. However, since my first class GCU’s
faulty are very helpful with assisting a student to become successful.
