What have we been learning?
We learned about academic essay organization, and how to write a strong a strong introduction paragraph with a interesting hook. We also learned how to write strong thesis statements and how to write strong body paragraphs with clear transitions like; however, whereas. We were taught how to write a strong conclusion paragraph and closing thoughts.
What’s Working:
Some things that are working are the body paragraphs because I can compare the differences between the novel and the book and really show how it takes away from the overall story. Also the Magic School AI chatbot helped me improve my writing by pointing out some mistakes and giving me some suggestions on how to start the opening hook which is usually the most difficult part of the writing process. Also working with a peer in this case Morpheus really showed me how I can improve my writing because his writing was very well structured and he gave me some very good suggestions.
Areas for Growth:
I think a area for growth is my transitions because I used one of my transitions incorrectly and I think I can really improve on that by using it in a more advanced way. dealled with this by asking magic school and my peers for help on how to use it correctly. The least favorite part of my essay is probably my closing statement because it just bothers me because I feel I could have done better but I could not think of any way to improve it.
Personal Relevance:
This essay really opened my eyes to the various ways artificial intelligence can improve our work in daily life and writing. This taught me how to write. proper nonfiction essay with all the components needed and I can use this for multiple things later on in life and in collage.
