In the text box, tell us about the very last thing you wrote before coming to class today. What did you write? Who was your audience? What was your purpose? Did you achieve your purpose? How do you know? Could you have achieved this purpose without writing? Why did you choose to write instead of...something else?

I told him what building he was in and how to get there. My roommate was my audience and I knew he reached his destination after he replied saying that he successfully made it. I could have achieved this without writing, but we were too far across campus to communicate face to face, so I chose to just text him instead.]]> 2021-09-23 20:05:06 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763980851 Zubaira https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763981516 I wrote a message to my roommates about meeting them for lunch. The purpose was to not eat alone, but rather, eat together at a designated spot. I achieved my purpose, since we're set to have Mongolian Wok after this class. I wouldn't have been able to achieve this purpose without writing because if I had made a phone call about Mongolian Wok in a class full of hungry people, it would've been obnoxious.

I think I achieved my purpose because she replied that she is coming over. I could achieve this purpose by giving her a call, but I feel like it's unnecessary. ]]> 2021-09-23 20:05:44 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763981718 emjortiz https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763981882 The last thing that I wrote was a to do list for my classes. My audience was for myself to make sure I wouldn't forget to do something. I still haven't achieve the purpose because I haven't gotten around to starting my assignments. Writing list on paper makes me remember stuff more than unlike a list on the notes app.]]> 2021-09-23 20:05:51 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763981882 aplopezperez https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763981907 The very last thing I wrote before coming to class were notes on a class syllabus. I wrote notes to get a better understanding of the syllabus without having to reread the whole syllabus. My audience was myself as I would be the one who will keep looking at the notes when I am unsure of something regarding the class. My purpose was to gain a better and create easy access for myself whenever I need to look at a general idea of the class syllabus. I did achieve my purpose to some extent because I can look at the notes and know a general idea, but I do not have everything that I would need to know such as important dates. I could not have achieved this purpose without taking notes because it would have made it harder for me to specifically find what I am looking for in a 8 page syllabus. I chose to take notes over something else because it is short and to the point, but it still holds very useful information that I can always use as refence for the class. ]]> 2021-09-23 20:05:52 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763981907 englopez https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763982067 the last thing I wrote before coming to class was a text to my mom telling her about my day. she always wants to know how Im doing since I moved to college so I try to text her as often as I can. yes I achieved my purpose because she now knows how Im doing and about my day. yes I could have called her or facetimed her but shes working, so a text was faster and easier ]]> 2021-09-23 20:05:58 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763982067 cxsgomez https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763982226 The last thing I wrote before coming to class was my feelings in my journal. I wrote about how I felt moving away from home. My audience was my future self, I like to re-read my journal entries. Yes, I was able to vent my feelings out. I know because I felt better after writing. I could have talked it out instead of writing it all down. I chose to write instead of talking it out because I don't want to vent to my roomate that I barely know.]]> 2021-09-23 20:06:05 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763982226 sdzavala https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763982509 The very last thing I wrote before coming to class, was telling my friends about the food at the dining commons. I told them how there was so many cookies and brownies, to prove Davis is the best UC college. There's no doubt in my mind I achieved my purpose as they were jealous of the food selection here. I could have taken a video to show what the food was here, except I wanted to tell them the details so they would not miss any of the best qualities here.]]> 2021-09-23 20:06:16 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763982509 kijnguyen https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763982655 The last thing I wrote was a text message to my friend about working out. I had asked about the arc and how scary it is to try new things. My audience was my friend. The purpose was to see if he could teach me how to use the machines at the arc without looking like a fool. I achieved my purpose because we agreed to meet every Thursday so I can get some guidance. I could’ve achieved this purpose without writing because I can verbally communicate with him but we weren’t meeting up today so text messages were necessary. ]]> 2021-09-23 20:06:22 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763982655 sjwatkins2 https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763982715 Before coming to class someone asked me for help with his art work. I just helped point out stuff about perspective and lighting. My audience was a few friends and some strangers. My purpose was just to help out my friend's art and maybe a few other people who may have read the thing I wrote. I think I did because he liked the drawing a little better after he tried out my suggestions. I don't think I could have easily achieved this without writing because I don't think my friend would appreciate me drawing over his own art. I chose to write this because I like looking at paintings and making them too. ]]> 2021-09-23 20:06:25 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763982715 martharangg https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763983083 The last thing I wrote before coming to class was an answer to my math homework. I didn't necessarily have an audience, but eventually my professor could be considered the audience. The purpose of writing it was to get ahead on some work and practice my math skills. I did achieve my purpose because I got a few problems done. I could not have achieved this purpose without writing because writing the problems down is ultimately what helps me understand the content.]]> 2021-09-23 20:06:40 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763983083 ktquan https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763983609 Before coming to class today, I wrote two pages of notes for my Art History class. The audience I was writing for was myself, to remember the notes the Professor was giving. I didn't fully achieve my purpose because I don't remember everything I wrote down, but I do remember more than if I was typing the notes out on my laptop. I don't think I would have achieved my purpose if I typed the notes because writing them reinforces the ideas better than if I typed them out. ]]> 2021-09-23 20:07:01 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763983609 moelee https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763984051 The last thing I wrote was a letter to my boyfriend for our anniversary. My purpose was to tell him that I am very appreciative of him and that I love him. Our anniversary was the day before I left for college so I also wanted to let him know that I was very thankful I would get to share my college experience with him and have him by my side through it all. I feel like I achieved my purpose, my boyfriend seemed to feel very loved and appreciated after reading the note. I could have verbally said this to him but I think having the note gives him the constant reminder of my appreciation  as he can always look back and read it again. ]]> 2021-09-23 20:07:16 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763984051 Alex_Krivitsky https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763984317 The last thing I wrote before coming to class was a message to my grandma and grandpa. I wrote about my first week at college and how it went, as well as my plan for the next 4 years. My grandparents have been a huge part of my journey to UC Davis, and writing to them is the least I could do. I think a call could have been better than writing to them, but they are very busy people. If I was to write something else it would be some notes to my younger brother who is planning on going to UC Davis next year.]]> 2021-09-23 20:07:28 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763984317 shlin2 https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763984428 The very last thing that I wrote before coming to class today is to text my friends in the group chat. I wrote to them about my first day of college life,  I want to share my life with others. I achieved my purpose by writing, I know I achieved this purpose because my friend responded to me also. We share our experience everyday. Actually I cannot achieved this purpose without writing, because my friends are in different countries, it’s even more difficult to speak to them face to face. ]]> 2021-09-23 20:07:32 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763984428 akheilmann https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763984495 The last thing I wrote was a message to a friend last night. It was ending a discussion I had with her about how things were going so far in the first couple weeks of college and especially now that we've started classes. I was more or less seeking comfort because this has been a big change for me and I am not necessarily doing as well as I thought I would have. I would say that I did achieve my purpose because I feel a little bit better and many people are in the same boat as me. Since it was late at night, it would have been inconvenient to meet up and talk so it was more or less necessary to use writing in this case. ]]> 2021-09-23 20:07:35 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763984495 kwutthakul https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763984614 The very last thing I wrote before coming to class today was some math notes for one of my classes this morning. I simply took some important notes from the presentation my professor provided. There's no particular audience since I wrote it for myself but I wouldn't mind sharing them with other people if they want to see it. The purpose of writing these notes was to make it easier for me to review later. I would use it to study for exams, for instance, and it would sure come in handy when I need it. I would not be able to achieve the purpose without writing because I would then have to study off of the presentation which is very messy and confusing.]]> 2021-09-23 20:07:40 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763984614 nmkwock https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763984658 The last thing I wrote was an answer to a pre lab for a different class. My audience was my teacher. My purpose was to complete the pre lab so that I would know more about the lab. I think I achieved my purpose because I submitted the assignment and know more about the lab now. I couldn’t have achieved this purpose without writing because then there would be no work of my own. I chose to write out my answers because it was the best way of answering the questions. If I had drawn my answers it wouldn’t have been as clear as to what I was talking about.]]> 2021-09-23 20:07:42 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763984658 ctzang https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763984690 The last thing I wrote was a text message to my friend asking questions about classes. That was for me to make sure if I still need to attend classes if I am on the waitlist. For now, I am still confused about what should I do if I am waitlisted for certain class. I couldn't complete if I didn't write because my friend is already home.]]> 2021-09-23 20:07:43 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763984690 kjou https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763985063 The last thing I wrote today is telling my friend 'mhmm ok' and this was in response to her telling me she might eat dinner early today because she had an early lunch. My purpose was just to let her know I saw the text and with my response I believe I achieved that since I texted her back. I probably won't have been able to achieve my purpose if I hadn't responded because she wouldn't know for sure if I had seen it or not. I choose to write that because it was short, simple and was straight to the point.]]> 2021-09-23 20:07:52 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763985063 mapinedajimenez https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763986655 I wrote a long message to my best friend back in Los Angeles. I told her how much I missed her and how I was anticipated seeing her again. My purpose was to get a response back from her to meet up during winter break. I did accomplish this purpose because we did make plans to meet up at her house during the holidays. I could have called her but messaging her worked just fine. ]]> 2021-09-23 20:09:01 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1763986655 Mandy11111 https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1764000565 Before coming to class, I sent a text to my sister to remind her to bring me lotion the next time she comes over to my dorm. The audience was my sister and the purpose was for her to bring me lotion in her next visit. I think I achieved my purpose because she told me "she got it," so I expect her to bring me lotion next time she comes over to my place. I could've achieved this purpose without writing by meeting her face to face but that opportunity is rare because she's also busy, lives far away, and doesn't have time to meet me. It's faster to communicate by text or phone. ]]> 2021-09-23 20:18:42 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1764000565 scwhites https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1778634736 The last thing that I wrote was notes for my Global Sexualities class. My audience was my future self in order to be able to go back and understand what happened in previous classes. I did achieve my purpose because I was able to go back to those notes during a section discussion and use them to make extra points about what we had been reading. I could not have achieved this purpose without writing because I would not have been able to recall the specific pieces of information that I used without my notes. ]]> 2021-09-29 16:11:18 UTC https://padlet.com/nepearsall/99pk3ql5k5ug3b5m/wish/1778634736
