Intro
In our lives we all have different hobbies, and different forms of practice(practicing) them, and in order to become better on what we do we need to have different and effective strategies, for example people who play sports need to know really good strategies to be successful, for example people who play golf are some of the athletes that need to know a lot of strategies and the best ones, they have to know how hard they need to hit the ball, with what direction, and they also need to know the speed of the wind, this is the same with classes on school, we want to be better and to make our work easier this is why we need to use strategies that help us in our learning and if we start with this strategies we can end up with very good results that we can use for the rest of our lives.
Lit Review
In this article Haas and Flower are talking about Rhetorical Reading Strategies, this is when students connect with the article and they have a better interpretation of it, and also they talk about how students can make the meaning of what they read, for example students have their own meaning of the article depending on how they read and the interest that they have on it, also some students have different meanings depending on their level, this means that there are experienced readers that have a better meaning of Rhetorical Reading, and there is also the beginners readers, but something that can help students to have a better point of view is when they connect with the article, something that can be a little bit harder is that students cannot interpret ate the text in a single way, this is because students have different ways to understand an article, that is why we have to use Rhetorical Reading Strategies. In this article they talk about students and they(their) different ways to learn by response, and this means that students can learn by being tutoring(tutored), this can be also by learned by explaining student's process to others and to them too, also students can help each other by making their own language about what they
want to learn, in this case reading and writing, in conclusion what they are trying to say is that students can be able to learn by themselves. Revision points up a split between teachers' claims and students' performance. Teachers assert that the practice of multiple drafts is the key
to good writing. This is not a strategy that every student uses because some students can end up with a worse.
Connection
H&F is talking about some really good strategies that sometimes even little kids use them, and these are Rhetorical Reading strategies, this
strategies are used when for students when they read, (basically) what they do is to conect with the article and to became one of the characters to have a better understanding, this is true but I also think that there are mote(more) strategies that students can use to make their learning easier, Gillam is talking about learning by response and this also a good strategy because students can learn by the feedback that their peers write on their papers and also they can look for people that can have good feedback for them so that way they can check it and have a better work. On "Detection, Diagnosis, and the Strategies of Revision" they are talking about the strategies that students can use
to detect some incorrections that they can have on their essays, and then thinking how they can do it better and at the end they revise it and
end up with a really good work.

Methodology
On my project the sources that I am gonna be using are surveys, and on these surveys I am focusing on asking the people that have experiences with these strategies of learning, and people who have different learning strategies, and I focuse (focused)on the responses that
I resived from each one of them, for example the prsentages (percentages)that they give me, and wich are the best or the worst strategies
to use, and also when can we use them depending on the situation.

Research Data
On my research some of the what I decided to do was to try to compare and contrast each of the strategies depending on the answers of the students and teachers, also I tried to figure out why sertain (ceratain) students gave me some answers, and also I looked at the answers
that teachers gave me and to have some conclusions depending on what were the answers.

Research Analysis
In my need to help students I decide make some surveys and asked some college students and teachers what they think about this strategies, when I asked the students what they think about Rhetorical Reading about 85% of the students answered that it is a big help to
them because it (it's) easier to understand the stories and because the own stories teach them how to pay more attention to it, and the 15%
of the students answered that it does not help at all because they do not have a teacher to help them. In addition, the reader’s
representation may include beliefs about the subject matter, about the author and his or her credibility, and about the reader’s own intentions
in reading (Hass and Flower 1988), this is a good help because if the students really need to learn they need to try to read in a rhetorical
way. This same question was asked to the teachers too and 95% answered that this is very helpful because when they are reading they are
understanding the story and also making their own questions, and the 5% said that it is not a good strategy because sometimes students
have a wrong meaning of the stories.

In one of my other question I asked students about Revising Strategies, the 80% of the students said that is a good strategy because they can reread and rewrite the articles and change words and also because they want to have a better work, when rewriting they begin to see
the structure of an argument and how all the various sub-arguments which are buried beneath the surface of all those sentences are related
(Nancy Sommers 1980). In other words it says that if you read you can do more corrections, the 20% answered that it does not help
because they are going to make the same mistake. When I asked the teacher this question the 90% answered that this is a good strategy
because the can learn from their mistakes, and the 10% said that students do not learn because some of the students do not know where
they are wrong and also they do not know what to use instead of their mistakes.
