After listening to a class full of papers, I think I have a pretty good idea of what a "good" paper should be like. The hook is important, because thats what gets the reader interested in the paper. Some peoples introductory sentences had to many words in them which made it sound less intelligent. I noticed that some people just restated what they read for there points which made me kind of sad. When someone brings up another point about what they read it gives a whole new way of looking at the book which made it interesting. I liked the unique topics the most because they weren't repeating the same thing everyone else had written about.
I haven't presented my paper yet, so I don't know everything I did wrong. The hardest part for me was finding the quotes, embedding them wasn't that hard. The second hardest part was the conclusion because I didn't want it to sound excactly the same as my topic sentence. Coming up with a good hook was annoying too. I don't think I did a bad job this time, but next time I am going to be more organized.
