Estefi, for starters, I want to tell you that you are doing good work. However, it is hard to find your work. You need to bundle your relevant pages by linking them to a page that explains what you're working on, and of course link everything back to your wiki hub. You have a page here: http://fall2010compositions.pbworks.com/Estefania%27s-page%28%3A. This could be a place to blog freely (as I have prescribed/assigned in the syllabus, and as I have reminded us in my mode of beseeching every class period) and also to provide links to your draft pages and polished final versions of the unit assignments. If you do this, you will see the necessity of metadiscourse that explains to us (your immediate audience) what you're up to in a specific post, and describe what we'll find when we follow a specific link. That way, your peers will know how to appropriately respond--for example, you can tell us at the top of your pages "this is an outline" or "this is rough draft, WTI" or "this is final draft of my WTE" etc. Furthermore, this is a method for generating "metadiscourse" that will help you to better integrate your research with your claims and reasoning, and help your readers understand where you intend to take them/why you are compiling this specific research.  Please organize and describe your efforts (as you've started to do here on your portfolio page)  and connect them to your "wiki hub,"  so that we can better understand where and how to offer feedback, and where to suggest applications of the various techniques prescribed in the MHG.

When I do an "Estefi search" I do turn up some great research and writing on the topic of abused women. You write from the heart, and your reasoning is strong. You also take time to seek out evidence, and compile that evidence for your readers. Now, you have all the materials you need to experiment with your writing--now, you can take the next step, and begin experimenting with different appeals and rhetorical strategies of address and arrangement, so that you can polish your essays in ways that will engage your readers and hold their attention.

One more thing--for your reflection, you might want to use the student learning outcomes on the syllabus or the step-by-step reflection guide in the midterm assignment prompt to generate more reflection. Here, you take wiki, which is the medium and therefore an important part, but not the entirety of your writing process and experience, to be the whole (taking the part for the whole is sometimes called "synecdoche"). Use the guide to reflect on all the dimensions of your writing process and experience.
