REFLECTION 2

For my technical description, I decided to describe the parts of a lamp and how it works. At first, I wanted to write about the Matrix of Leadership from the Transformers universe. After writing about 200 words, I ran out of things to write about. There is not a lot of information on how the Matrix works or what it is composed of. I should have done more research on my object before deciding on what to write. After researching various objects I decided to write my paper on a lamp. I was thinking about doing a camera but I felt that would be complicated. I decided on a table lamp because the composition was not complex and I felt like I would understand how it works. I learned a lot about table lamps from this paper. I learned about how light bulbs work, the inventor of the table lamp, and how it works.

I started my technical description with the history of the table lamp. I felt like this was a good way to introduce the object I was going to write about. I also wanted to show how the table lamp has evolved over time. Next, I wrote about the composition of the lamp. I described the parts of a lamp in the order they are composed of. I did this in order to show how each part was connected and could not work without each other. After describing the composition of a table lamp, I explained how a table lamp works. Some things I would change about the paper is adding more pictures. It would have been more effective if there were close up images of the parts I was describing. Another thing I would change is describing some parts more in-depth.

I feel like I deserve a grade of 85 for this assignment. I fulfilled the assignment requirements and described all the parts of a lamp. I believe that anyone who does not have knowledge of how table lamps work can understand by reading this paper. There is much to improve on this paper like describing some parts more in-depth and making the flow of the paper better.
