Dear Dr. Bruce,
The purpose of my letter is to display documents with a profile to present how I
accomplished the student learning outcomes (SLOs) listed in our class syllabus. During our
English 301 semester we encountered many writing assignment, however I choose to only
include four documents that will successfully show how I improved and mastered my writing
skills.
The first document displayed is the final original blog posting I submitted in the
beginning. This paper fulfills four SLOs, starting with SLO number one where I successfully
managed to create my blog for a variety of audience and explain a clear purpose. By going into
clear detailed descriptions of the photo I choose to use for the blog. The level of writing I choose
to interpret was clearly aiming for Americans as one, to help an important cause. Throughout my
original blog I also mastered SLO number 3. Pursuing my readers to donate to a great and life
changing foundation. Using my outstanding techniques to explain the importance of donation
assistance. With great detail, I described cultural differences between America and third world
countries like Africa, fulfilling SLO number 5. As successful as I was with my original blog I
did lack SLOs which are completely mastered with my new and revised final. The decision to
change my mistakes was advised from your blog feedback rubric, and peer feedback. Some
changes were wording of fragmental sentences and grammar errors. I also decided to go more
into detail about what specific water system I used in my blog description. Lastly, I created
citations and a reference page to satisfy the second SLO.
As you turn to my final blog you will see that I effectively mastered all SLOs requires
with the help of two additional documents. The first SLO, is included successfully in two
documents. Formally writing in my blog and in this cover letter. Informal writing has been
attached with feedback that I gave to others on how to improve their own blog postings which
was done in, and outside of class. Through my blog, I demonstrated a variety of audience.
Explaining how as Americans, we must feel entitled to donate to The Water Project charity. The
purpose of my blog is to be extremely specific and clear while reading. With the reader having
no problem identifying the importance of clean water in third world countries. SLO number two
was clearly absent in my original copy. In this final blog you will see how I used a formal APA
reference page, which is one of my additional documents, and I also cited my sources correctly
throughout my blog.

I successfully compared and contrast on how we value water here in Americas, and in
third world countries. Synthesizing carefully the importance of water, tying in perfectly with the
cultural values in third world countries. The fourth SLO is clearly addressed across my blog. My
thoughts about the importance of water, and the severity of donations is clearly displayed. I have
also organized my blog to persuasively address my main points. Cultural differences between
America and Africa was the main aspect of SLO number five. Perfectly in this blog I influenced
readers to donate, so children access clean healthy water. Expressing much sincere feelings to the
crisis that African children are living in. In the final SLO number six I provided an extra
document that illustrates how peers helped me improve my writing skills. In this document you
will also be aware I helped my peers improve their writing. Conducting comments that will
become useful, without using offensive language.
I hope the new final blog revised version will help me illustrate to you the major
improvements I made in my writing. Allowing me to display all the Student Learning Outcomes
that were taught throughout our class. Most importantly I look forward to inspiring you into
looking into a serious water crisis Africa is going through at the time.

Sincerely,
Diana A. Juarez
