Third Paper

This essay was a little more difficult because of the research component. At first, I could not find information on the topic I wanted, but I was able to make a new topic with what I did find. With all my articles, I was able to make an argument about media literacy being taught to young students in school. Incorporating my information into my essay was not difficult, but I had trouble remembering to analyze the quotes I used. When I read my paper, I knew what I was trying to say, but it was not clear enough to Jeanelle and Brandon, who read my paper at the workshop. They told me that I should add more commentary after each of the quotes. After re-reading my paper, I did find quite a few fragmented sentences as well as run-on’s. I used the OWL worksheet to go through and fix all the errors I had to make my paper flow better. The tips I got from the workshop and handout were helpful, but I am still not sure how my essay came out.
