Rogerian Argument: Is Mine Good?
Yet another essay rough draft due, and yet another
self-review is do. I have thought and thought, read and re-read, and am still
unsure of myself. My last essay got a little too argumentative even though it
was supposed to be informative. First step in my review process was to go back
and read again comments Mr. Sentell left me on my informative essay. Much to my
chagrin, he was correct and I had at least two paragraphs that were pretty
opinionated. So fast forward and in my
mind I already have two paragraphs done for this essay!
I added three more paragraphs of naysayers to my essay and
two more works cited. I tried to punch home my thesis statement a little more,
all the while addressing people who might see the other point of view. I hope I
have hit the nail on the head for this assignment. I really tried to understand
the directions; revise the last essay and turn it into a Rogerian Argument.
I will have to review my essay one more time before final
submission on Friday. Even though I always do a lot of my revisions on the fly,
there are always a few rough edges I find in my final read through. Usually it
is simple stuff like grammatical errors. I have had fun in this class and I
just want to go out with one last good paper in my hand!
Jason my sentiments exactly ...one final last 'bang' but this paper for some reason is quite definitely stressing me out...good luck
ReplyDeleteJason, this paper was a little tough for me as well. Although I felt like I wasn't opinionated enough. Like you I read and re-read my paper several times, made several revisions, and had my sister proof read for me just to ensure I didn't miss and small mistakes. Hopefully we all got a fabulous grade on this last paper.
