Overall this year I have struggled with the formatting and citations in my paper, they are the one trait that I have lost points for all three papers we have written. I'm not sure what the problem is because when I am formatting the paper on my computer everything seems to be right. I just hope that I can fix this problem when I...... yes, rewrite my Literary Analysis.
I must be crazy for wanting to write this again but it was definitely my worst paper out of the 3 and we have to do one.... so here it goes.
I struggled with Ideas and Organization in this paper which is strange because typically these traits are simple and easy to get 10s on as long as I have an main point for my paper and details to expand upon it with. I had ideas in this paper just not ideas that I could easily explain. I was a bit confused with the purpose and the point of my paper from the beginning, which must have caused my execution of the insanity of thoughts in my head to be a jumbled up mess of ideas on the paper as well. This brought the organization down too just because I was lost as to what went where and how I should go about explaining the ideas that weren't completely making sense to me. So this time around I really need to get a good understanding of what I'm talking about, otherwise I really have no right to write about it.
My voice, word choice, and conventions always seem to do well in my papers. I'm not too worried about the sentence fluency although it was pointed out by Dr. D int he rubric. I think that if my ideas are straightened out and I find an organization that flows, then the sentences will too. So wish me luck as I try to rewrite something that I've yet to even completely understand.
Good choice. I think that this is a good idea and it is good that you know that you are struggling with it. Good Luck!
ReplyDeleteGood plan. Having complicated ideas is a good reason for having a rough time with a paper and a good reason for taking one more shot at it. I look forward to reading your revision.
