Dr. Messmer went over application essays today. In the first session the students only looked at thesis statements. They now critiqued essays as a whole. They read through essays looking at what could possibly be improved and what was good. Dr. Messmer also created an essay that contained a lot of cleshays. The students easily picked it out and it was interesting to see them really point out everything they saw as flaws. I hope they can do the same with their own writing.
