When I looked at my papers, I didn't really see any glaring and recurring mistakes throughout them in the comments on them except for citation issues, which I guess would be format. For my second trait I looked specifically at the paper that I am choosing, which is my research paper. I found that I probably could've used better words throughout that one, especially because it was in a formal voice. This is something that I could improve on in this paper and think that it will be a way to make this paper much better overall.
As I said before, I will be revising my research paper because it is probably the paper that I was least confident about when it was said and done and I really just didn't feel good about the whole thing. This was one of the reasons and I also thought that it might be more effective to do this one because I am still familiar with it. I also found that this one had the most problems with citations to fix. I think that this one needs the most work so that's basically why I chose to revise it for my portfolio.
Matthew, the research paper sounds like a good choice for revision. You might consider working on voice as well as word choice, two areas where you received lower rubric scores. There are some formatting issues that you won't have the opportunity to improve very much because the portfolios will be published on the blogs.
