This week in class I learned a lot of different tips and tricks to help with my WP1 and future writing projects. I learned how to write a working thesis, which was really helpful because it allowed my ideas to change as needed each time I revised my essay. Learning about the “arguability test” was helpful as well. Learning both of these concepts allowed me to making my thesis rock solid, and after revising my WP1 a few times, I felt really confident in it. I liked the peer/reader review also. The commentary from my group was super helpful, and I added in a majority of the suggestions I received. I thought the reverse outline idea was cool also. After highlighting, I realized that a lot of my essay didn’t relate back to my thesis and I didn’t have enough textual evidence. The second and fourth colors weren’t equal, so I knew I had to go back and add in more of my own analysis. Our journal questions helped me to reflect on my paper as a whole and figure out that I needed to revise it again for me to be happy with it.
