Although it might seem like you just met a girl named Maria,\u00a0\u00a0this course has been a lot\u00a0longer than you thought.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The past ten weeks of spring quarter have been without a doubt a powerful learning experience.\u00a0 I developed as a college student as well as learned\u00a0new skills on not only how to research, but most importantly how to become a better writer.\u00a0 I learned a various amount of styles on how to construct these writings. From archives to surveys to annotated bibliographies to argumentative to a media project.<\/p>\n

Looking back on this now, the BEAM method to frame work my writing was extremely beneficial and important.\u00a0 As a refresher, BEAM stands for, backgrounds, exhibits, arguments, and methods.<\/p>\n

B\u2026<\/p>\n

Backgrounds or background sources are\u00a0materials whose claims a writer accepts as facts. The author then uses these found fast as \u201ccommon knowledge,\u201d which can later be used in arguments.<\/p>\n

E\u2026<\/p>\n

Exhibits or exhibit sources are\u00a0materials a writer offers for explications, analysis, or interpretation. \u00a0Therefore, exhibits are commonly referred as one\u2019s \u201cevidence\u201d or \u201cexamples,\u201d which add to a writers conversation.<\/p>\n

A\u2026<\/p>\n

Arguments or argument sources are\u00a0materials whose claims a writer affirms, disputes, refines, or extends in some way. \u00a0One would naturally say that arguments are just \u201cconversations,\u201d and can even just be commonly held views.<\/p>\n

M\u2026<\/p>\n

Methods or method sources are\u00a0materials from which a writer derives a governing concept or manner of working. In other words, methods are simply just\u00a0influential concepts that may enter into the general language\u00a0of disciplines or professions, which allows them to lose their ties to specific sources.<\/p>\n

BEAM is the framework for readings, being that strong writing depends on strong critical reading skills.\u00a0The framework for critical reading also made it useful to framework my writing.\u00a0 Some of my best academic papers were written this quarter by analyzing specific exhibits in order to further conversations embodied in specific constellations of argument sources.\u00a0 In my opinion, I think BEAM allowed me to successfully accomplish\u00a0 strong academic papers.<\/p>\n

But this is all I have for now for you…<\/p>\n

So long,<\/p>\n

Farewell,<\/p>\n

This is Maria signing off.<\/p>\n
