Week 8 Comments and Feedback

Overall, for the feedback I am recieving, I am finding it useful in moving forward in my writing.  the most useful feeback I recieve is that which points out specific instances of both good and bad examples of my writing.  These specific examples allow me to see exactly what the reviewer is referencing and allow me to search for other instances of the same flaw/feature. 

As far as feedback out, I try to follow the same sort of expectations I want in my feedback in.  Trying to find examples to reference as to my overall thoughts towards their writing in order to show them exactly what the strengths/weaknesses in their writing is. 

As for blog comments, I feel that reading a particular persons blog each week really does give me an insight into them and their writing, especially those that I respond to weekly, due to being able to follow along with their semester.  Overall, I am happy with my own blog in this aspect as well, because I feel my blog really does give the sense of me and who I am. 

Looking forward, I really just hope for more of the same, people giving me their feedback both good and bad on what the think of my writing/project, and trying to give the same to others.

I chose this image because it just makes sense to need feedback to help grow.  It follows from my previous points about the desire for strong feedback, hence the image.

    Hey John-Paul. I have enjoyed reading both your stories and your feedback on my stuff, and I can only hope that the feedback I leave for you is as useful to you as your comments are to me in my own endeavors. I will try to use more specific examples when I leave you feedback in the future just to try to be as useful as possible.

Introduction to a UAS Pilot and Aerospace Engineer

Hello all, I am John-Paul Burke, a Aerospace Engineering Graduate student at the University of Oklahoma and Research Assistant for Dr. Andrea L'Afflitto at the University of Oklahoma's Advanced Dynamics Laboratory.  My hobbies and work overlap, with most of my current projects being the design, testing, coding, and flying of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) also known as drones.  Personally, I own 3 different UAS models, and enjoy flying them whenever possible.  As an FAA licensed UAS pilot, the ability to fly and allow others to experience the joy of piloting is amazing, because seeing the excitement on others faces when they fly (and crash) a UAS for the first time is infectious.  Below are several of my videos taken of or by my drones, with an apology in advance for the quality of the one taken by the drone, due to the UAS being a restoration project and so the camera is not quite up to full quality yet.  Restored Parrot Drone First Flight Test, personal v...

Week 10 Story: Into the Arena

Image
"Arjuna! Arjuna! Arjuna!" the chants from the crowd resounding throughout the arena.  Arjuna smiled slightly, then loosed another flurry of arrows, dropping all the targets released.  During each shot, the only thing he remembered was his trainer Drona's advice, "See only the head, not the body."  Eager to show even greater prowess, he hopped on his horse and galloped throughout the arena, hitting target after target without fail, prompting even more cheers from the crowd.  Finally, the time came for the greatest exhibition, and an iron boar was loosed into the arena.  To any witness, the next five arrows that Arjuna released were faster than the wind itself, and all hit the boar straight in the mouth, as if they were but a single arrow.  The boar dropped dead, and the arena rang with the mightiest cheers anyone present had ever heard. Arena, from  pinterest As Arjuna reveled in his glory, not all were pleased for the great prince.  Duryodh...
