post 5

When i first started writing, I didn't even know what i was writing about so i had to stop and think and do some more research on what I wanted to major in because i don't have  major right now. The most important thing to m was my introduction and i had ti make sure it kept my reader wanting to read and i just let the rest follow .My conclusion was also important and i had to have strong reasoning.

 In my doc2  I am trying to persuade my reader and explain why they should choose exercise science as a major. Essentially, exercise science is the study of human movement and this is especially important for athletes participating in different sport activities. There are a lot of athletes around the world but not as many trainers and coaches and people in that type of occupation. In   C arroll's essay "Backpacks vs. Briefcases" she says " Few of us are persuaded only with our mind, though. Even if we intellectually agree with something, it is difficult to get us to act unless we are also persuaded in our heart."

outside sources in academic writing post 3

 Using outside sources in academic writing is very important because you can get different ideas and perspectives. Mike Bunn in his "How to read like a writer," uses a lot of quotes which gives him a lot more credibility and the reader now has a different perspective on the topic. A quote should always back up your claim and reasons as to why it does and it should also have where you got the information from. Now you have more support of what you are saying.
