Self Evaluation of Task Three

Self evaluation of task three
  • What is the thesis for your paper?
I’m not the best at determining the thesis of a paper so bare with me. A student that plays sports is held on a different level than a student that stays indoors and reads or studies will be the one that is considered weird or an outcast.
List the main points you make in your paper
I explain how if you play athletics in school it seems to make it easier to do some things like make friends and get a little more of a break from the teachers.
The fact that when I took a step back and looked and my experience turned out to be a typical experience for most American High Schools.
I also discussed how I think it is a problem for our nation when it comes to being a world power. And if we don’t change our ways it will ultimately be our downfall.
What was the most helpful advice you received from your peer evaluation?
Before I had peer evaluation I had a paper pretty much composed mainly of the authors thoughts and based around my quotes with little information about me or my experiences
What was the most helpful information you received in class for your paper?
It wasn’t any one piece everything we went over helped me. The more we went over the more I understood what was expected.
How many drafts of this paper do you think you wrote and how/when did you write them? For example, did you compose at the keyboard, did you write lots of notes to yourself, did you pre-write or outline, did you write in small chunks of time or sit down and produce an entire draft at one sitting?
I only wrote the two. I totally critique my papers as I write them. I read and erase a thousand times as I am writing.
What would you do differently with this paper to make it more effectively, or what did you try to do that you just don’t think you got a good handle on?
I would try to make it flow together a little better and not try to make it sound like two separate essays.
What are most pleased with about this paper?
I feel like I was better at providing examples to support my opinion in an essay
