How to get out of Writing This Process Analysis Paper
Often enough, students in school will do whatever possible to get out of an assignment. In this particular situation, our goal is to write a paper on process analysis. Just like a majority of students, we have little to no interest in writing this paper. However Mrs. Basko is forcing us to. So, in the future maybe the following suggestions will assist you in successfully getting out of writing.
- Procrastinate
This is the most creative way to spend your time not writing the paper.
- Make College Composition your social hour. Perhaps your close friends are only in this class.
- Attempt to listen to your music as you work…
- Take your dog on an unnecessary walk.
- Check your facebook for the fiftieth time.
- Get your holiday shopping done.
- Make sure music lessons are always 9th period
Music is your number one priority, especially when auditions or recitals are coming up.
- And if its not…. Make up your lesson this period.
- Someone calls you out of class
Let’s face it, you’re just that popular.
- Have your friend look up the number of a classroom and call it during class.
- Do something stupid so the administrator will come looking for you.
- Fake being sick
All people get sick from time to time.
- Wake up late at night go into your parents room and tell them you feel sick.
- Spend a lot of time in the bathroom in order to convince your parents to let you stay home.
- Claim you have a horrible headache and go to the nurse and don’t come back.
- Forgot your flash drive
After all, your flash drive contains all your saved work.
· Walk into class screaming. When your teacher asks what’s wrong, claim that you forgot your flash drive.
· Somehow break your flash drive and prove to your teacher that it isn’t functioning properly by plugging it into the computer.
- Printers not working
Technology these days seriously!
- Tell your teacher letting her know that your computer and printer are not working properly and that your parents most likely wont replace them until after the holidays.
Hi Caroline,
ReplyDeleteAgain, you are strong at reflecting on your work and the reflection here is both fun and easy to read.
Here are my thoughts for you on how to improve this entry:
1. Use paragraphs in your reflection. I think there should be one about how you came up with your topic and stuggled initially. And by the way, mention your partner's name. And then there can be another paragraph when you reflect on what you and your partner think of the first draft.
2. Be sure to check out that comma rule thing :) When you say:
"A few strategies we included were 'Make college composition your social hour,' and 'Make sure music lessons are always ninth period'."
You need to include a comma after "were" and after "and."
As far as your how-to paper is concerned, I love the the topic and some of the unique ideas you came up with. I would even love to hear more. I totally agree with the fact that you need a conclusion to help pull it all together.
I think that the introduction can be improved upon It is simple and does the job but now that you have worked on introductions, I'm sure that the paper could benefit from a new and revised introduction.
I think that each of the points you've outlined could use more explanation and development. That can happen in one of two ways. You can write an introductory paragraph to each of the bolded sub-topics OR you can expand on each of the bulleted sub-points OR both.
This piece could also benefit from some editing. There are some typos in there that could be fixed without too much effort.
I hope this helps,
Ms. Basko
