I signed up for this class with the intention of improving my abilities and techniques in
writing scientific literature. You introduced us with distinct student learning outcomes (SLO)
that we would achieve throughout the semester. We were assigned various tasks that would
resemble the skills stated in the SLOs. This letter is an explanation of how I have improved my
writing skills and mastered the SLOs along the way. The documents I’ve included are my
definition, team charter, and lastly this cover letter. Each paragraph will include an individual
assignment and the SLOs it satisfies.
The second document is a team charter that was created with my group in preparation
for a project about antibiotic resistance. This document exemplifies the masterful use of
collaboration because it is a single document that was created by multiple individuals. Not only
was it written by me and my peers, but we worked together to ensure it met everyone’s needs
before submission. Various discussion and ideas were traded in order to ensure a finalized team
charter.
The final document is actually this very letter. Throughout this document I have
showcased my expertise in persuasion along with using language and design to get my points
across. Persuasion can be seen where I have supported my claims with specific evidence and
reasoning. Language and design can be seen throughout, but mainly where there is sentence
structure variety.
This class has helped me master the various SLOs but also improved my overall
confidence and skill as a writer. Most of these techniques involving scientific literature directly
apply to my major in marine biology. I have greatly improved in both using and citing research
articles in my own work. Without this class I would not have come as far in writing as I have
today.
