Uptake Week 1 - Akya Lewis

  How has your identity as a Writer-Researcher changed over the course of the semester so far? What does genre research mean to you? How does genre research connect to your idea of yourself as a researcher? I think my writing identity didn't change but it has grown to become better. To me, genre research is the type of research that determines what type of writing you have and what it's about. It connects to my idea of myself as a researcher because it helps me become the best writer I can be.

I think translingualism is when a word can mean one or multiple things in different languages. What's confusing to understand about translingualism is the actual meaning because I still need help with understanding it more because I don't know if my meaning is right or not. I still want to learn more about its meaning so I can better understand what it means. I think it could be applicable to my life in a positive way because it can help me understand different meanings words could have and in different languages.
