Informative Report Reflection

The process to achieving a well written informative report has many steps to go through, ones in which I went through while writing my own report. The first part was brainstorming, which I went through ideas in which I could research. I stumbled upon my topic accidentally while trying to think of topics relating to international criminal justice. Through invention and inquiry, I further developed my brainstorming idea from a one worded google search to a developed thesis. I then went through the writing process of planning my report. I wrote out how my thoughts should follow throughout the report by finding evidence from various sources. Pre writing and writing included my creation of a rough draft whilst conducting further research for more credible information that I could include into my report. I was not in class for peer reviews however I took my time to read over my report various times to edit grammar, formatting, evidence, etc. To finalize my report, I read over my articles in which I used in my report to ensure all valuable information was being used. I then read over my report once again to ensure formatting was correct, and that my sentence structures also varied so that I met the sentence fluency learning objective. I ensured that all punctuations were correct and no run ons were present. I then posted my report to the class link on blackboard once I finalized my thoughts and corrected my paper of errors.
