Criterion B: I did analyse the quotations pretty well, but I could identify more literary techniques and analyse in greater details the quotations. And also consider the intentions of Barker, rather than only considering the character.
Criterion C: I think I did follow a logical structure, and that there is an argument being made towards the end. However, I should link back to the argument that Rivers is regenerated throughout my IOP.
Criterion D: I didn't use much literary terms, but my style and register is appropriate.

Criterion A: I would give myself a level 3. I looked a different parts of the novel and pulled out the relevant quotes and understood and interpreted them. However, I could have used less quotes and concentrated and gone into more in depth analyses of those quotes.
ReplyDeleteCriterion B: I would give myself a level 5. I went into quite a lot of detail in my interpretation and they were all relevant to my topic question. However, I could have used more literary terms and put more expression into my tone of voice.
Criterion C: I would give myself a level 3. The whoe IOP was structured and I did refer back to the topic questions on occassion. However, I could have made it clearer by linking it back tot he topic question more often and been more persuasive about what I was saying.
Criterion D: I would give myself a level 4. My language varied and was clear and smooth and audible. There were rarely any mistakes that were made or stammers and such. However, I could have used more literary terms and varied my register and style more.
