On your individual blog, preferably in a separate post, write a self-reflection letter (to me) about yourself as a student. The letter should include but is not limited to the answers to the following questions:
What have you learned?
What do you think are your strengths as a writer?
What do you think you could improve as a writer?
Evaluate your performance as a student (participation,homework, papers, etc.).
What final grade would you give yourself at this point?
Dear Professor Jessica Newman,
Throughout the semester, I've learned many things that will help with my future. I've learned about the aspects of strong thesis statements. They have help improve my essays and other types of writing. With the help of the Hacker book i was able to understand the MBA format of writing. I was able to understand the concept of analyzing to a whole new extent. As a student, I feel that I am average when it comes to the performance of a student. I accomplish most my assignments, I sometimes participate( even thought I answer when called) and my essays could use some work. At this point, I would give my grade at this point between a B+ to B. Hopefully, there are ways to boost my grade besides following the syllabus, but I feel confident that I'll be passing this class.
Your Student,

Q & A of the Feedback
Look over your returned argumentative essay paper. On your individual blog, answer the following questions. Based on the feedback,
- what did you do well?
- what do you need to work on?
- how you will use this knowledge to strengthen future essays?
- what grade would you have given yourself?
- what questions do you have?
1. On the essay paper, information on my topic was shown throughout the paper. The thesis statement was stated to the assignment. The conclusion was summarized and closes the essay.
2. The summary of the essay was strong and the thesis statement was there, both didn't fully connect as a whole.
3. For future essays, to place facts and connect the details of the essay to the thesis statement.
4. The grade that I would have given would be a B. Since I gave information that tied to the idea of the megamachine, but did not give an understanding that links the details to the statement.
