Last day for the essay

Today in Human geography class on December 13th, we continued to work on our essays and peer edit them if wanted to so that way we could fix things and the people could point out what we either good and we can add or what we need to get rid of or fix to make it sound better. After he gave us time to work on the essay we talked about plagiarism and how you can have a lot of consequences if you get caught doing it. I learned that it had become a very big deal because your taking other people's work and using it as your own and that Is especially wrong because you are not giving them any credit for it. Also, it's just better to come up with your own ideas and use your own information because then you know that your safe and can't get in any trouble for taking other people's work. Overall on my essay I really liked that we had more time to work on it because then it was easier to plan things out and get all my information together and figure out what I was going to say and it was easier because then I didn't have to rush and do it in a certain amount of time and I was able to take my time and make sure it was detailed and had a lot of facts to back up my points and factual information to explain all my points. The essay helped me learn a lot more about the topic chose which was immigration and it helped because now I can understand it better the people talk about it.
