Response to Comments


What was the most helpful piece of advice you received? Explain.

The most helpful piece of information that I received was from comment MF3. This is the most helpful piece because it’ll help me establish the main argument of this paper through describing my writing history and my development as a writer. I believe that I can improve my paper by elaborating more on my writing history and by relating it to my reading history and experiences.

What was the least helpful piece of advice you received? Explain.

            The least helpful piece of information that I received was from comment MF1. Comment MF1 was the least helpful because the presence of my obligatory introduction won’t negatively or positively affect my paper.

What questions do you have about Megan’s comments?

Megan how do you approach brainstorming?
How did you collect your advise?

What are your plans for revision? Be specific. I should be able to understand exactly how your work will change in exactly which places.

In my plan for revision I will first, reevaluate my thesis statement. If I reconsider a couple of my main ideas I can possibly improve my paper. Furthermore, I will consider the advice I was given in Megan’s comments and elaborate on them. I will proceed to spend more time talking about my writing history and how my experiences have affected me as a writer in my body paragraphs. Next, I will rearrange my body paragraphs and tackle the main points. Finally, I will add supporting details and personal writing experiences to these main points and conclude my main points.

  1. Check out what I said to Kayla about introductions and conclusions: http://kaylaedge1103.blogspot.com/2013/02/instructor-comments-reflection.html

    Brainstorming: I spend a good amount of time mulling it over in my head. I end up drafting random sentences and putting together random thoughts as I am driving or doing other activities like brushing my teeth. Then I talk it out with at least one person. Talking is the best way for me to brainstorm. Only after that do I start writing. And I keep talking throughout the whole process.

    Advice collection: Experience with writing (figuring out what does and does not work for me), teachers who helped me work through my writing process and struggles, taking courses in Writing Center and Composition/Writing pedagogy, looking at models and trying to mimic them, and my dad (he enjoys writing too)
