October 15, 2019 In this paper, I’m working on a few different things. One, I need to actually finish my paper before I am able to go onto editing but besides that, I need to expand on some of my ideas. I think the biggest thing that I need to improve on is how I …
October 14, 2019 Overall, the ideas in this paper are solid. I can clearly see that you put work into this and that you really have an idea on where you want to take it. However, I think the flow and organization of this paper is a little rough. There’s one sentence at the end …
