Geneva Week 2: Class Act

Today, on Monday May 11, 2009 we received our English Persepolis Unit tests back. I think that it was a lot of criticism about the things that we have to do for our exam essays. So we really focused on circular paragraphs. This included a complete flush of our ideas instead of jumping from idea to idea. It was interesting to seehow other people interpret their comments, because many of us have the same problem or similar yet we don't go to each other to learn how to fix them. I think that the group effort will be very important in the DP program because the support and further feedback is important to show improvement.

Parts to Writing: (Requirements for the final exam essay question)

Example>Quotation needs...

"This example is particularly effective because..."

-If you start with information you have no where to go
Start with an argument, it will help to be analytical
Attach the detail after.
