In the first section, review a few specific writing tools/skills you learned/practiced in this class and give examples from Project 2 . You might mention progress structuring STEM essays, writing body paragraphs, showing visual sources, collecting data , etc.
In the second section, analyze a scholarly article that you used in Project 2. Write 1 long-ish paragraph talking through the essay’s structure – mention the major divisions plus subdivisions, and mention how the article shows these sections. Then write two more shorter paragraphs about how the article shows primary and secondary sources. For example, STEM authors often show their primary data visually in graphs/charts, while they very briefly summarize secondary sources plus in-text citations.
So, to show you that visually, outline your essay this way:
