The article about Oedipus the King from Week 7 was, in my opinion, the most successful assignment. I was able to express my ideas in an understandable way and comprehend the concepts of fate and free will with clarity. I think that my work on Essay 1 may have been improved. I had trouble structuring my ideas and coming up with a clear thesis. The essay would have been stronger and more targeted if I had given it more thought during the preparation and editing stages.This semester, I learned how crucial it is to back up your claims with textual proof. Simply expressing your viewpoint is not enough in college-level English; you also need to provide convincing evidence for it and maintain organization in your writing.

Lucas, I’m not sure what Oedipus the King article you are referring to, but I do agree that for many assignments, evidence and facts are important. Even in opinion essays, such as Essay 4, you need to support your claim with evidence from secondary sources.
