Jenn's feedback:

"You have done an excellent job with the most challenging parts of writing: communicating purpose and maintaining focus on that purpose with solid content. You have included an introduction that tells the reader what they will be reading about and a conclusion that rounds the paper off nicely by summarizing the main points you made in the body of the paper. I do suggest you move your thesis statement ("This battle with the product of...") to the end of your introduction so that it guides the reader into your essay better. I also noticed that despite a lot of factual information, there are no in-text citations, and there is no reference section. I suggest that any information you acquire from another text is followed by in-text citations to avoid plagiarism issues. Finally, you noted that the paper should be APA formatted. According to this, there are a lot of formatting issues. It would help if you indented your paragraphs half an inch, removed extra space between paragraphs, and centered and reduced the font size on your title page. Also, the first time an abbreviation is used, anything that is abbreviated should be spelled out, and then the abbreviations placed in parentheses after. Last, you need to include page numbers. In addition, there are many punctuation, capitalization, and grammar errors throughout the writing, affecting reading comprehension and cohesiveness."
