How do you put extra effort into your papers to make them "high quality?" What new strategies have you learned in this lesson that you can apply to your next paper? << Read Less

Explanation:

This seems to be a popular question on as it has been asked multiple times before. I think the answer really depends on what is taught in the lesson and should refer to the lesson materials.

Someone reported the answer below received a good mark:

"Putting extra effort into your work would include actions like using synonyms, avoiding too many contractions (words like "can't" or "don't" in grammar), and refraining from including your opinion in order to stay professional (unless the topic requires it). The "6 Trait Philosophy/Writing" strategy is what I plan to use in future papers. This strategy contains the 6 "steps" or "tips" for better writing, which are organization, conventions, ideas, fluency, voice, and word choice. And, of course, the standard formatting guidelines."

"To make your papers high quality, make sure you establish a clear purpose and use a variety of sentence structures and advanced vocabulary. Organize the essay effectively to provide a coherent flow of thought/argument and stay on topic! Make sure each sentence supports your thesis/argument/purpose and avoid incorrect grammar and mechanics that could detract from your credibility. Use liking words and sentences so your essay flows."

Explanation:

One key to show extra effort is to make your papers longer, use sophisticated words and have a nice structure. New strategies from your lessons will help if you can find them.

Other things you can do: add transitions, use stronger words, add figurative language if doing a personal narrative, or you can switch the wording around to make the paper look good.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
