Self Reflection

My assignment was to write research critical analysis. One thing I’ve noticed about my writing is that I tend to struggle more on how to grab the reader’s attention. In this paper I first included what a hearing aid is at the beginning to sort of grab the reader’s attention. I got this idea from what I’ve seen other people do in stories,books or even essays. For the future I am still going to be trying new ways to get an attention getter. But I’ve learned from this experience because now I have more knowledge of what is preferred or what works best when wanting a reader’s attention. Another struggle I had was because for this assignment specifically I had thought of what ways would work best when it came to writing this paper. I came up with breaking up the work and what was needed from each day I worked. At first I didn’t have an outline so there was no structure in my work,which left me unsatisfied and then I decided to create my own outline. It helped me to keep my work organized and to have a format for my essay. Overall I’ve learned how to develop a skill for drafting my work for a better come out for my writing. From one peer member I’ve learned that having peer review is also extremely important because sometimes I would read over my draft and see that there would be word mistakes or even grammar mistakes. The outcome I gained from this was that I’ve now gained a new strategy of editing my own work and know what should be fixed or not.
