The Rough draft of my essay was never reviewed by one of my peers. So I had to fix my rough draft on my own. And one of the challenges of writing this essay is successfully integrating my ideas with material from my sources. My paper had to explain what I thought about as far as the hidden dangers of ADHD medications. I also needed to support my ideas with research, or they will seem insubstantial. My technique I thought was appropriate. I had to review the source material to summarize it. Identify the main idea and restate it as concisely as I could. Depending on my purpose, I had to condense any important details or examples to put in my essay. And also had to check my summary to make sure it is accurate and complete. In my draft, I summarized and researched a lot of materials that presented the hidden dangers of ADHD medications.
You have to be able to communicate the feedback message in the most appropriate way that you can. You have to make observations about students’ learning processes and strategies that will help them figure out how to improve. Make comments about the strengths and weaknesses of a performance, the work process you observed or recommendations about a work process or study strategy that would help improve the work. Make suggestions about what could be done for improvement. Also avoid evaluating or “judging” student work in a way that would stop students from trying to improve. And most of all, use positive feedback/comments that describe what is well done.
What really makes writing motivating to me, is sharing it and being successful with it. But as my past writing assignments, it seemed to be that we were learning everything step by step, whereas in college more is expected from me as a writer. Being a high school student was quite easy to push everything off till the last moment. But I do have a weakness when it comes to sentence structure. I am not very good when it comes to putting sentences together and making them strong and well developed. And my word choice isn’t that good either. But I did what I can. But now, I really feel much more confident about myself in different aspects. I feel that as a writer I am able to give good detail when I feel strongly about a point.
