This wasn't one of my favorite essay since I wasn't completly into my topic. I found it so much easier to play Devils advocate than it was to actually argue for it. I was really difficult trying to organize it and use the right words so that my essay does not seem week. Overall it was really interesting and was very helpful. The assignments weren't as helpful as i thougt it would be but were useful. My strengths were playing devils advocate. My weakness was trying to stay true to my arguement and making sure that everything was organized.
ENC 1101 is my favorite class by far. The people and everyone are so nice even though tasha baby gave us a really harsh first impression. She turned out to be one of the most helpful teachers i've had in my whole life. I love the analysis essay. and i love the fact that its not a lecture class. It made it interesting and i felt that we got a lot accomplished. The overall atmosphere between the tasha and the students is great. I love it! Although i must say I strongly disliked turnitin.com... The peer reviews there were horrible. Although the person that i had was very helpful i realized today that she didn't get her paper peer reviewed at all! Plus the deadlines were confusing since it had two dates after the start date. The peer reviews are better when they are done in class since its easier to give verbal feedback that could not be given on turn it in.com. It was very difficult to give suggestions.

Devils Advocate
My topic is about giving teens contraceptives in school! I personally do not think it is okay for the schools to give teen contraceptives for several reasons. It could be assumed that the schools are trying to promote sexual activity amoungst its students.
Students at this age do not have the mentality to know right from wrong. Therefore, no matter if the school preaches abstinance and shows the consequences of having unprotected sex. Sexual education shows them that unwanted preganacies can occur as wells as sexualy transmitted disease but at this age, teens just want the excitement. By having the school giving them contraceptives the schools are just promoting "safe" sex. They are trying to lower the amount of unwanted pregnancies and raise awareness on sexually transmitted diseases. Even if not all the teens pay attention to what the school has to say, they might be able to change one life. These kids are having sex regardless of what the school says so why not have them do it the right way! Atleast by having the schools giving them the contraceptives, the schools are giving them access to things that they are too embarrased to get out in normal stores. It is difficult for a "child" to get contraceptives in stores. They might think that its humiliating or that people are judging them. This makes it easier for them to get it.
