357 Words2 Pages
Through the process of completing my academic research paper for this course I learnt numerous things. The first thing I learnt from the process of writing my paper was the significance of having a solid thesis statement. When it comes to writing a research paper I find that many individuals, including myself, typically attempt to cover a topic that is too large for the length of the assigned paper. When writing future research papers I will remind myself to structure a clear thesis statement that is appropriate for the specific length of the assignment and ensure that I am writing these papers according to their theses so that I do not write about unrelated subjects. Another thought that came up after writing my research paper was related

This would help with some of the arears that are wordy and help the papers flow. An example is in your thesis statement that states “While the tank started as a pipe dream and then became little more than a novelty, it eventually evolved into what it was meant to be and still continues to evolve in this modern day’s ever-changing battlefield as well as in the minds of people.” Reorganizing sentence structure would lead to a stronger paper. Maybe the thesis statement could read; The armoured tank first developed from an idea into a powerful weapon used in warfare, but do to advancing technologies it’s use has become limited in today’s ever changing battlefield. Proofing read and sentence structure would aid in the strength of your

I found this to be very helpful for me as a writer because I was able to stay more organized than usual. Some changes I made to my essay was to explain the uses of ethos, pathos and logos a little more. Rather than assuming that my audience knew what I was talking about. The feedback from my peers helped the most. It made me realize that parts of my essay were choppy and did not have a good flow.

Coming into RCC 200 in August, I felt confident as a writer in my ability to articulate my thoughts into a well-developed essay. However as with any student, I knew that I had plenty of room to improve, most notably in regards to formulating a strong thesis, descriptive body, and well-summarized conclusion, and was fortunate to have countless sources to guide me throughout the semester. At the conclusion of two months of practice, I have learned several new techniques of how to properly convey my writing across various forms of papers, which is best exemplified when comparing my annotated bibliography to my i-search paper. What was most challenging about my annotated bibliography was my lack of ability to apply college level strategies across several aspects of my paper. In hindsight, it is understandable as to how I was unable to express myself in a more coherent manor as I was not yet introduced to tools such as our class book They Say I Say, assistance from tutors at the writing center, or valuable expertise from college professors.

In chapters 22 and 23, I learned about the mistakes writers have in regards to sentence structure and wording. An idea that was emphasized immensely throughout these two chapters was that a writer should never repeat their ideas since it adds unnecessary information (CITE). This information was really important for me to learn since I have the tendency to repeat ideas or phrases due to the fact that I either forget that I had already wrote about them or because I feel my thesis needs to be emphasized more. As a result, I will thoroughly review my essays to make sure I remove any redundant information. Additionally, I will practice more ways of writing that will allow me to express the same idea of a paper just in a different format with extra
