Reflection 3
1. In reading and helping other people revise their essays I learned to take a step back and
read the paragraphs to make sure they tie together and make sense. It was interesting to
see how one sentence alone made sense but together it didn’t seem to go together as a
paragraph.
2. Discussing other people’s work helps me think about my own in that it helps me
remember to double check I have done all of the things I am grading the other person on.
3. The most challenging part hands down was getting in the habit of making meaningful
4. The most helpful part of the workshop was seeing the different approaches people took to

see a clear vision as to why each point is where it is. Once the rest of my essay is
completed I plan to go back and take a deeper look at the order to make sure it
d. Conclusion: I have never been good at concluding my essays and I always end up
just stating my topics all over again. This is why I had a hard time coming up with
a conclusion and failed to do so. I plan to take my time to write a conclusion that I
feel truly sums up my essay without just restating the same things continuously.
