Ok so what I said about the summary being one of the most challenging papers I have written so far, well I was wrong. Essay # 3 was a challenge as well. This was a challenging essay because we had to join 3 different topics and then compare and contrast them, which was hard because you had to find the right 3 essays that had enough stuff in common to compare them. It’s always easy to find topics to contrast in an article but it is not as easy to find something in common to compare.

Citing the articles was not hard to do, but it was not as easy as I thought it was going to be. The hard part is correctly putting the article information in the correct order.

Now that I understand TS/CD I do use it a lot, and knowing what it is I also realized that I have used it in every paper I ever wrote and just didn’t know it. I am glad that I learned it too because without it I am pretty sure that I would not be able to write and of my essay assignments. So I would say that it definitely works for me. That would really suck not being able to understand how to use TS/CD, because when you are stuck on what you want to write about all you have to do is think about the TS/CD stuff and that would help you write your whole paragraph. Too bad all high school teachers don’t teach that.
