#3 Talk It Out!

Wednesdays class was very interesting and I enjoyed having the two speakers share their teaching strategies and believes. One of my favorite prewriting techniques discussed in Hodges reading was the section titled "Talk It Out" on page 65. This particular section stood out because that same day, a coworker of mine, who is getting their masters in Organizational Leadership decided tot talk to me about two topics he had considered for his essay. He mentioned that he really wanted to talk about social and economic populations (since he works in a field related to that already), but then he started to talk to me about how he found interest in another subject. Without knowing, he had verbally created an outline of the second topic. Then he jumped off of his seat and said "I know what I want to write about" and he left my office.
