Hello Everybody! My name is Jack Dougherty and I am a freshman at Emory University currently enrolled in Dr. Mandy Suhr-Sytsma's English 101 class. This site contains my works concerning multimodal literacy. In addition to literacy essays, this site also contains my blood, sweat, and tears. I am very proud of it and I hope you enjoy it as well.
This website contains three full projects that I completed throughout the Fall semester of my freshman year. The first one, titled "Lost on a Hong Kong Subway" contains the narrative I wrote about how traumatically getting lost on a busy subway in one of the busiest cities in the world in a way shocked me into learning a new language. The second one is titled, "The Multicultural, yet Uniquely American Experience," contains an essay I wrote about how being multicultural is part of a unique American identity you can only find in the United States. By clicking the link 'Learning: Sooner is Better,' you will find a simplified and cleaner web version of an annotated bibliography that I prepared using scholarly texts and research tools that suggested that learning languages is statistically much more achievable at a young age than an older stage in life. I really hope that you will take the time to read over my works. You can contact me at [email protected] if you would like to chat more.
