Response to Megan's comments


I found two things most helpful from Megan’s advice. Megan pointed out to me that I consistently summarized the article instead of analyzing it.  She believed that it is important to state what my strengths and weaknesses of the article were and whether it was credible or not and my thoughts on that. Furthermore, I consistently failed to state the questions that I had after reading the article. In addition, Megan reminded me that it was essential for me to explain how the authors’ argued their points and how well they argued them. I found this advice extremely helpful.
The least helpful advice I received from Megan was to correct a couple of grammatical errors where I misunderstood where an apostrophe and a period went The advice was still helpful but it was just the least helpful advice I received from Megan because correcting grammar is the last step of revision.
I believe that Megan did a wonderful job giving me advice on what to revise for my paper. I do not have any questions for Megan’s comments.
When I revise, I plan on stating and describing the strengths and weaknesses of the article and whether or not it was credible. Though the article did not leave me with any questions after I read it, I will state and describe topics that I believe the authors’ missed in their articles. In addition, I will tell whether the authors’ argued their points well or not. Lastly, I will go to the Writing Resource  Center and have someone look over my revision, because I believe that another person’s thoughts on your writing is essential in the revision process.
