The Fifth Week essay was very effective on providing information on how to go about revising my papers for the portfolio. I like in the beginning of the Reading how it talks about when you trying to revise your paper it can be very difficult because your almost attached to your writing and it is hard to see past what you wrote and see the problems in your writing. Separating your writing into almost puzzle pieces so your writing is just all mixed around is what this reading suggests. This will help you be able to pull out the problems in your writing in order to make your writing smoother. I have never used this tool for revising but it really seems like a good way to go about revising. I myself finds it very difficult to revise just for the simple fact that I have already read through the piece so many times and did so many corrections that I don’t even want to think about the paper. Separating my paragraphs and trying to put them in different parts of my essay will definitely open my mind up to creating a stronger smoother essay.
I am also going to have another set of eyes from multiple sources like it subjects in this reading. I find that other peoples opinions really help with finding different problems with my essay. This allows a different view or angle that might give me new ideas to add to my Essays. The writing center will be a good source for me to start from when it comes to having a fresh set of eyes go over my paper so I plan to use them.
