Stephanie,

Thank you for resubmitting your paper so I could read it without bias. I did read the feedback after I finished with your paper and we did focus on similar areas. Please be sure to follow the specific suggestions your feedback tutor provided.

Your draft of the final analysis shows promise. Clarifying and honing your thesis statement is the first step in moving to improve your draft. Clearly following the pattern for essay writing – introduction, body paragraphs and conclusion – is crucial. Two academic sources are required to fulfill the requirements of this assignment as well. Please note my comments on your paper for additional suggestions.

One important issue is that many unique words and phrases you use are matches to a previously submitted student paper. I am not suggesting intentional plagiarism, but please take care to clearly cite any words or materials your used that were taken from another source. I have attached a copy of the TURNITN Originality Report for you to review.

Pat L.

Please note: The date on the feedback report is 4/26. I assume you submitted it 4/25. That would mean your paper was initially submitted one day late, necessitating a 10% deduction for a late submission. Please let me know if I am in error or if there were special circumstances requiring a late submission.

( 1.52 / 2.00) Analyze Literary Work(s) From the Approved List of Prompts

Basic – Provides a limited analysis of literary work(s) from the approved list of prompts and/or includes plot summary and/or personal reflection. The three key points from the proposal are minimally developed and vaguely supported by the analysis. Relevant details are underdeveloped.

Comments:

You have a promising start to your analysis here, though when you revise you might develop critical thought with more depth and detail. Your revision should also flesh out more fully the three key ideas you articulated in your proposal. 

( 1.52 / 2.00) Thesis Statement

Basic – Thesis statement is present, and somewhat provides a direction and purpose to the essay.

Comments:

You have a working thesis here; however, it is quite vague and broad.  Take time to revise your thesis, narrow its focus, and include detail that articulates a clear, analytical direction. 

( 2.28 / 3.00) Body Paragraphs and Topic Sentences

Basic – The body paragraphs contain general topic sentences that are minimally related to the thesis. Details are unclear.

Comments:

Your body paragraphs show a lot of promise. To improve them, remember to build your own original analysis from the quotes that you incorporated. Also, be sure that your topic sentences clearly state the main idea of each body paragraph. Otherwise, nice work!

( 1.52 / 2.00) Conclusion

Basic – The conclusion minimally reaffirms the thesis statement   and summarizes the direction and purpose of the essay; however, the conclusion is underdeveloped.

Comments:

While your conclusion is close to being complete, remember to continue developing its content before submitting your Final Paper. Aim to write at least seven to eight sentences so that your readers have a greater appreciation of your main argument.

( 1.28 / 2.00) Apply Literary Elements and Other Course Concepts

Below Expectations – Attempts to apply literary techniques and other course concepts to the primary source(s) to present an interpretation of the work(s); however, significant details are greatly underdeveloped.
