What is the thesis for your paper?
The thesis of my paper was how my mom used both what she learned from events from her past and also what she learned in school to make a bright future out of her life.
List the points you make in your paper.
Dads and alcoholic, inappropriately touched, raped, abused, schooling.
What was the most helpful advice you received from your peer evaluation?
The most helpful advice was someone told me to be more descriptive of the events that happened to my mom such as giving more examples of how each event effected my moms life.
What was the most helpful information you received in class for your paper?
The most helpful information given to me in class was to make sure not to get off topic when writing your paper. This helped because since my mom is very significant to me I was afraid of wanted to let the reader know everything about my mom and I didn’t want to get off topic.
How many drafts of this paper do you think you wrote and how/when did you write them?
I think I wrote about 3 different drafts but I wrote them as the rough draft. I did use an outline and wrote a little at a time would take a break and then write again. This helped me avoid writers block.
What would you do differently with this paper to make it more effective, or what did you try to do that you just don’t think you got a good handle on?
I tried to not get off topic but I think in the end I didn’t have enough detail as I should have. I need to find a median in between to much detail and not enough detail and I don’t think I’ve quite found that yet.
What are you most pleased with about this paper?
I please because I think I did well at outlining my moms past and education backgrounds.
Hi Paige,
ReplyDeleteI'm happy with the detail you do include in your paper. That being said, what we may need to work on is cutting down on length :) I cannot remember the length of Task 2, but Task 1 was fairly long. Although you did a fab job with it, there are always info we can omit. This is the hardest thing as a writer because we see any info as important info.
