What article etc lead you to choose the topic of the essay? http://www.smh.com.au/environment/energy-smart/is-this-the-end-of--the-nuclear-renaissance-20110315-1bv60.html?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter I didn’t even reference it because it didn’t really cover that much of what I ended up writing, but inspiration comes from funny places – no?
After completing the essay was there anything you would have done differently?
I feel I spent too much time researching and planning without leaving enough time for drafting! This caused me to omit many things I had hoped to include. I would have done more to fulfill the big goals I set myself in the methodology section and researched this area much more.
Any comments on something you gained personally from researching/writing this essay?
I feel that this essay has helped me improve my English writing skills. Subjects do not include enough language intensive assessments such as essays. It was truly refreshing to have the opportunity to practice and improve these skills!
What aspect of your would you like me to comment on, give feedback on etc?
I feel this task could have done with more structure. I did appreciate the freedom given to me and I like to think I made the most of it, but at the same time I cannot reasonably state that it did not cause me some headaches to come up with a topic. Ultimately I went with a somewhat disappointingly boring topic because I just had too many ideas. I decided I’d just settle on something safe. I sort of regret this, but this is the wrong subheading for introspection of that nature.
Can you give me an estimate of what mark /25 you would realistically expect to receive for this essay?
I think you might have difficulty finding fault with my referencing. There are lots of them from current sources and some are very respectable. So let’s go with a five for that section. I think my introduction adequately covered what I wanted. I think you might mark me
