blog #7: the importance of correctness

In our discussion in class it was interesting to hear the problems that everyone else has with correctness and how they compared with mine. I always thought I was the only one who struggled with effect and affect, but that obviously wasn't the case. I also thought our discussion on when it mattered was interesting. I know I don't pay attention to my grammar or punctuation when I'm writing to a friend but when I write a formal paper or an email to a teacher I am much more conscious of what I am writing and how it is put together.
