Prompt # 3

  1. I generally look over an assignment twice before, multiple times during beginning, and twice after the first draft is done. Looking over the assignment again after the first draft is done is beneficial because sometimes students have the tendency to do things their own way or the way their use to doing things. This could also help because sometimes you miss things you didn't see in the beginning.
  2.  Considering evidence with your own personal experience makes your point stronger and clearer to your audience. Evidence is kind of like the backbone of your paper. It enhances your experiences to make them more engaging to your readers. It also sets the tone of how you feel about a particular subject.
  3. I think we should discuss the part about the steps to analyzing your papers. That's something I have difficulty with and knowing how to analyze your paper well is the start of making an "A" paper. This skill also helps with learning how to lengthen and give great details in your paper.
  4. This section and the rubric are pretty much the same in my opinion. They both describe how a college/university paper should be properly written. The only difference is the wording in the rubric is easier to understand at a first glance.

  1. I agree with the fact that you look over an assignment numerous times because people sometimes see things they didn't see the first time around. Also, your answer to #3 pretty much says the same as mine. It's something that a lot of people THINK they know the general definition to, but in actuality, most don't know how to actually analyze a paper.

  2. I understand how analyzing a paper may seem frustrating at times and I completely agree that it will make for a longer and lengthier paper. It will allow you to not only understand how your thoughts effect you but also why another writer would write something. To analyze something in depth will give you a deeper and more profound sense of the content you're either writing or reading.
