Workshop Reflection: Joining the Conversation Step Two

Each of my group members contributed equally to the revision of my paper. Brian pointed out that my paper started out as more of an annotated bibliography, and that I could fix that by taking out certain portions of my sentences. Rachel pointed out a lot of grammatically incorrect statements in my paper, and helped me to understand the format that I was lacking. Dominica helped me with the improper placement of quotation marks, and also saw some sentences that were not clear to her, and helped me change the wording to make it flow better.
The most helpful piece of advice I received was from Dominica. My main goal in writing is to make sure my readers fully understand what I am trying to get across. By pointing out things that she did not understand, Dominica helped me fulfill this goal.
The least helpful piece of advice I received was how to fix the heading at the top of my paper. Although this is a very important step, it will be last in my revision.
My plans for revision start with the content of my paper. There are a few parts I need to reword or take out, and I will do that first. I will make sure my paper flows nicely and is easy to understand. After that, I will proofread my paper again and fix any grammatical errors present.
