Self-Evaluation: Essay #1

In my final draft, i had very little gramatical errors, and maybe a few words that were misspelled, but i think i could have put a little bit more thought into the statements i made in my essay. Also i think that i should of used the PIE concept of writing paragraphs more, it would of made the essay flow better. Though i did have good content in the essay i didnt use Jacoby or my sources very well in the text. I needed to integrate my sources into my opinions better and it would of made the essay better. Some of my content was very good and had a strong reason for being there, however the analysis part is where i kind of got lost. Ive never been good at analyzing texts, and i feel that in order for me to succeed in writing i need to be able to possess that skill. The MLA formating of my essay was correct, though i didnt put in a works cited page at the end of my paper. I think i wrote one, but just didnt print it. So that leads to another change that needs to happen, i need to be more organized with how i do my writing, this way everthing comes out the way i want it to.
