From reading the book Farmworkers Daughter, I have learned that agents of socialization are important because it shapes an individuals identity. In the book we see how how major agents of socialization have influenced how the author sees herself and her identity. The author and I shared the same major agents of socialization such as family, school, peers, and media, which goes to show that major of socialization play a big role when forming your identity.
I have learned that in order to write a decent paper you have to provide examples from your personal experiences/life so that your paper can be have that unique touch. Also the flow of the essay will be better since you are able to connect/relate to the author if writing a compare and contrast essay. From writing the essay, I was able to get a sense of my identity since I now know how major agents of socialization have influenced me. As a reader it is important to annotate because it makes it easier when writing an essay to go back to the book and draw examples the author has provided. Also it is important to understand what the author is saying when reading. Critical thinking is needed when writing the essay because you have to think about what the author is trying to get across or his/her message. Sometimes you have to think out of the box in other to do so.
