Literacy Remix

I should probably preface this by admitting that I'm relatively resistant to change. I'm used to writing papers in college and, though I don't enjoy it, it's what I know and what I'm relatively skilled at. The classes that actually engage me are few and far between. For those that do, it is no problem at all to write a paper, I enjoy the reading and the research as well as the actual writing. For those that don't engage me, papers are a chore and are pretty boring, but it isn't difficult to just crap one out that will suffice, but not have nothing that special about them.

This project was unusual because it forced us to go outside the traditional paper writing. I had to be engaged by the subject of my literacies because if I wasn't it would render the creative writing portion and the digital remix impossible to complete. Though I was certainly resistant to it at first, as I am with all coursework, I ultimately found that I enjoyed doing those two portions even more than the original. Looking back at the first part that I wrote makes it seem quite boring to me, the first was certainly the weaker of the three.
