Reverse Outine Reflection
Making a reverse outline for my WP1 helped me hone in on a lot of the major structural issues that I had in my WP1. For one Zack pointed out that my thesis statement really wasn’t strong enough. It was also noted that my essay was all over the place, by making a reverse outline I was able to make a more concise outline for the points I was trying to convey in each of the paragraphs and maintain a more structured flow. After I reverse outlined the main points of each of my larger paragraphs I was able to go back and rework my thesis statement so that it wouldn’t be vague (since our thesis statement is supposed to be a ‘roadmap’ for the reader I was able to take the main points that I have identified in my outlines and used them in my introduction/thesis statement).
Paragraph 6
Differences in ideologies influence content, impossible to be completely unbiased the perspective presented influences the reader.
