  • Need to work on time management and grouping concepts; I had a hard time deciding how to outline my essay
  • I don’t think I annotated my extract enough; likewise, I forgot the topic, so I wasn’t particularly focused on annotating the extract to answer the question
  • Teacher’s comments: too repetitive (mentioned “tension” too much) and didn’t qualify what tension meant or what it achieved; didn’t contextualise the extract, so some of the points are confusing; needed to zoom in more
    • I need to remember to mention things outside the extract if they are important in relation to the extract and topic (ie heat)
  • I think I chose a bad extract for me because I’m not sure if I actually understood the techniques used in the extract or how it contributed to building tension
