I received a lot of information from the Center for Writing Excellence. I used the passive voice often, and I put my citations in the wrong place. I got good reviews from one of my peer reviews, and there were some things that the second reviewer thought I could change, such as adding counter arguments. Ms. Waldron pointed out that I put too many spaces in between paragraphs, and also my citations were incorrectly placed. I followed most of the advice given to me from the Center for Writing Excellence. I didn’t change all of the passive voice because I thought the sentences flowed better in some cases with keeping it that way. However, I did change some of it. I moved all my citations to the right place, and I eliminated the extra spaces in between paragraphs. This was the correct thing to do because the way I had it did not follow APA guidelines. I also did not add a page number to my quote from Abraham Lincoln because it was from a speech he gave. There was not a page number to draw from. I did not follow the advice from one of my peer reviews that said to add counterarguments, because I included quite a few. Only one was specifically indicated as a counterargument, the others were implied counter arguments, and there were numerous occurrences of them. As I was re-reading my paper, I also got a few minor mistakes I had made and corrected those as well.
