Here are some points to help you revise:

(1) Intro Paragraph --- Write a strong thesis statement.

(2) Body Paragraphs ---Revise topic sentence #1 to make it about you, similar to how you set up body paragraphs 2 and 3.

---Keep to present tense in signal phrases and the entire essay really (Dweck states, not Dweck stated)

---Review ICE and take a look at each quote to ensure that you follow this protocol for quote use. Every quote should be integrated. If you introduce a quote with a complete sentence, you should use a colon. You should use a comma when you introduce with a signal phrase → Dweck writes, “quote” ----- Cite your quotes using the page number --> (1). Explain the quotes you use thoroughly before connecting it back to your experience. Use the Quote Analysis Checklist.

----- Don't forget to include transitions at the start of your body paragraphs. Review the Transitions handout in our modules.
