Final Informative Report Reflection

Reflection

            Writing the informative report was honestly and surprisingly challenging. With what I have learned in class and with all the specific guidelines I was told to follow, things got a little confusing at first, but, now I feel good that I finally learned the right way to write an informative paper. Honestly, I think I could have put much more effort in writing a paper, but the last two weeks have been a disaster as there were a family emergency. Although I do not enjoy writing an essay, I am a little more confident now to write an informative paper, as I was taught the basic rules and guidelines I can follow.

            In my paper, I used the three paragraphs introduction: one for the hook and the thesis, one for the definitions and key terms, and one for the background. I found this really effective, as not only it is easier for the reader to distinguish the thesis and the parts in the introduction, it made my essay more organized the professional. I also used the heading in the body of my essay, as I really think that headings makes everything so precise and clear. It helps arrange the essay more, as well as laying out the main points which the reader can easily identify because of the headings.

            Overall, writing an informative paper was definitely not easy. It was challenging. It took me a combination of time, effort and stress to finalize the paper, and I really hope the Professor enjoys it.
