The purpose of my research essay is to get the readers interested in the Mpower organization. I wanted my essay to leave a positive encouraging effect on leaders in the making, as well as getting students excited about the activities that Mpower offers. The intended audience is any Ole Miss student who has a passion for leadership and loves helping others and our community. During the writing process I really wanted to strategically hone in on the organizations keys points and main attractions. I tried to plan out this essay as if it was my first time hearing about this organization. When making decisions for my essay I tried to see this essay from a different perspective. When talking about the organization’s history I tried not include too much information because I know sometimes that can be boring. I tried not to add information that might be considered boring or repetitive. I have always really enjoyed the peer reviews. I take them very seriously and I like hearing different feedback. Sometimes I miss something that others can see. For example, I forgot to put my name on the paper and the date, but thankfully one of my classmates reminded me. I really like the blog posts that we do in class. I don’t feel as nervous for our research paper. While I was writing MP1 I felt pretty confident in my writing because of the examples that were given throughout the articles we had to read for class.
