Writing Reflection Three
Out of the essays I have written essay number three has been my worst one so far. The main reason for this is because my attempt at writing a response paper falls kind of short. My paper had good content and examples but, did not follow the rules of a response paper. Since this essay I have found out that I have problems with response papers as well as research papers. The reason for this is because I do not really understand how to write those kind of papers so I kind of just write a normal paper. This then leads me to not achieving as high of a score on my essays than I would if I wrote the paper correctly. One of the ways that this problem can be fixed is I review my notes and the powerpoints on blackboard to find out how to write a response paper. I can also look up on the internet and study how to write these kinds of papers. Also, another way I can improve how to write these papers is to ask my friends and classmates for help on how to write better. Other than that I found my paper to be an improvement over the one I wrote for the writing placement exam. However, even though my paper has shown an improvement it still contains the same problems that I have had with the rest of my papers. One of these problems I still have is with shift in person. This means I tend to shift from third person to second or first person in mid sentence. The second and last problem that I still have in my papers are commas. I still do not know where to place them and sometimes do not put them in at all.
