The first essay “You Better Think Before You Spit” does not have a proper format such as MLA or APA. This essay has strong points throughout, however, I think the bold titles such as “Introduction” are unnecessary. It also seems to improperly cite four sources:
Dirk, Kerry. “Navigating Genres.” Writing Spaces: Reading on Writing, vol.1, 2010, pp. 249-
262.
Glatch, Sean. Personal interview. 29 Mar. 2019.

The second essay “The Puerto Rican Student Association: A Community Identity Analysis” has a good title for the paper, however, it also does not have a proper format such as MLA or APA. The author of this paper had a person from their University Writing Center help them out with improving their paper which is a great way to use your resources. This paper also included four citations, all of which seem to be in the proper citation.
