Jenn's feedback:

"First, while you have a lot of interesting bits of factual information throughout your writing, the paper lacks focus and cohesiveness. It is possible direction could be brought to your paper by reworking your introduction and adding a clear and concise thesis statement that guides the body of your essay. Having this thesis statement will then improve the content of your paper. You can align your paragraphs with the thesis statement, which will ensure that your writing flows cohesively and that you address your points in enough depth. Third, you did mention that your paper is supposed to be APA formatted, and there is no reflection of this in the way you wrote the piece. Consider either referring to an APA manual or allowing someone versed in APA formatting to proofread your paper and provide you with specific feedback. Last, there are many grammar, sentence structure, and word choice errors that also affect the reading comprehension and cohesiveness of your work. A proofreader can also help with this."
