I have always incorporated transitions in any kind of writing. However, in my midterm essay, I further exceeded in solid transitions throughout my entire paper. One of the best examples of this is when I wrote, “Another hardship that has come with the development of advanced technology, is students are using it to complete basic assignments for them” (Midterm 2).

Dialogue is a skill that I have often struggled with when writing my papers and is something I need to improve on. Although I didn’t show any growth in my use of dialogue, It is clear that I advanced in integrating quotes in my writing throughout the
