Feedback Journal: Graduate Writing II
Week 4: Writing Feedback Log
What kind of feedback would you like to receive from your instructor? On what aspect of writing would you most like to receive feedback?”
I want feedback on the clarity, organization, and logical flow of my writing, particularly in academic arguments and thesis development. I would also appreciate guidance on strengthening my scholarly tone, effectively incorporating peer-reviewed evidence, and improving APA formatting. Additionally, feedback on MEAL paragraph structure and smooth transitions would be helpful: Feedback Journal: Graduate Writing II.

Reflection and Future Goals
Reflecting on weekly feedback helps identify common writing challenges and promotes continuous growth. By addressing paragraph structure, writing mechanics, healthcare economics, and organization through subheadings, future writing will be clearer, better structured, and more professional. Continued engagement with writing resources and instructor feedback will refine these skills further.
