The writing packet that we have been looking at for the last few classes is very informative. It is giving us a chance to see the ways that we can glean information from gathered documents. By looking at the prompt we can see what was asked of the writer, and how they interpreted it. By looking at the free writes and brainstorming papers we can see the writer's thought process and the evolution of creative force. By looking at the drafts we can see what the original attempt at answering the prompt was, and as the paper is reviewed we can see how other's opinions help shape the final draft. The instructions were a little confusing in the beginning however, I think this is a very worthwhile assignment, and I have gotten a better understanding of how to go about analyzing the texts.
