WW4 – Self as Writer Throughout my entire academic career, I have noticed that there are a few areas in my writing that I succeed well in. Most of the time I am able to craft an attention-grabbing introduction and conclusion that also inform. I think this is because when I was in high school we were instructed heavily to create an opening and closing to a paper that could summarize the rest of the paper if they were to be the only thing we wrote.

It did not provide so much information that would cause
reading, "An annotated Student Introduction", I will certainly do some things Colin O'Neil did in his essay. In his introduction he first states an issue and the assumptions it holds. He then includes what other people have said about the issue to show that he understands what's going on.

So, my paper did not have many noted errors when I glanced at it other than the two my classmate made when reviewing it. From there I decided to go over the process of writing the paper and what strategies I incorporate in the paper would be the most successful and what wouldn’t be. Once I developed the idea of what I would be writing in, I began to develop my thesis. Originally I made my thesis way to broad. Instead of focusing on two specific individuals I chose the Enlightenment and Scientific

Going over these weaknesses will allow me to elevate my quality of writing essays. Throughout my whole school career, I have always had problems brainstorming ideas for essay topics. I could never find a great topic that
sentences, I had to reread so I would understand them. Concepts: 3 1) Essay retells a chronological event of historical importance - No, I felt as if the essay was told in random order or told backwards.

always my favorite field of study, I used to get good grade in writing all the time. Writing is fun, sometimes puts me in emotional feeling, or even bring me back to the time, to something I really interested about.
