Feedback to Learner

Yolanda, Thank you for all your hard work on this essay. It very much �ts as a capstone, and I hope the process has been helpful in developing your thinking. You take up an important part of the writing process here (generating a �rst draft), and it's a thorny issue from a pedagogical perspective, as idea generation is something that is di�cult to guide a student through. Overall, you touch on some of the issues that surround �rst drafts here, but I'm somewhat surprised by some of the broad comments about education/students/teaching in general. Put brie�y, the essay could be strengthened by a greater focus on drafting/composition in particular. Additionally, the sources could be better used, as in many cases, I'm not even sure what it is that you're citing (your usage is also uncommon in MLA, which generally features much more speci�c citations). Were you to take up the issue again, I'd encourage a deeper dive into the secondary literature speci�cally. Especially in a course like this, I would much prefer getting to comment more fully on your work, but we have a very short turn-around on a number of projects in these �nal weeks. Please do reach out to me if you'd like to discuss your work more fully. I'm always happy to do so, despite the o�cial end of our course. I hope you're well, and let me know if I can be of help with anything. All Best, AW
