Week 6: Creating Bibliographies and Practicing MLA Citation
Revision Narrative Assignment Sheet and Rubric
After feedback has been received from your peer group and course instructor, you are
responsible for making appropriate changes and reflecting upon these changes from initial draft to
final submitted draft. This assignment is reflective in nature and you are not expected to quote
assigned reading or course content. Instead, think about the assignment holistically and trace
your drafting stages from beginning to final product.
Our personal identities and experiences affect how we view ourselves as writers, and we need a
certain level of self-awareness as writers in order to recognize the power and control we have to
guide how we compose texts. This Revision Narrative Worksheet should help you approach two
outcomes: demonstrating motivated decision-making and revision throughout an ongoing process
of composition and articulating connections between one’s identity and experiences and the
rhetorical choices one makes. As you answer the questions on this worksheet, narrate how your
awareness and decisions changed across the revision process for this project. Notes:
• Be as specific as possible about the realizations and decisions you narrate, but don’t feel
like you have to include every little thing you realized or did.
• The “work on your own” category is where you can describe steps you took to revise
beyond the required steps I ask you to complete. It could include additional exercises you
did on your own outside of class, visits to academic resource centers, things you applied
based on any readings, feedback you solicited from someone outside of class, etc. Either
replace the “work on your own” box with a description of what you did or delete those rows
if you’re not using them.
• To successfully complete this Revision Narrative worksheet, your answers should do the
following:
o demonstrate the use of a variety of revision strategies
o articulate the potential influence or consequences of one’s identity and experiences
as the composer
o reflect on the affective experiences of the composition process
You do not need to integrate all of the suggested changes, but goal of this assignment is to get
you thinking about the writing process at large and consider the steps you take when you revise
your own composition. To receive full credit, review the assignment rubric below and complete the
following revision narrative outline.

process
6. 1. Do you think your local revisions or global revisions were
more impactful to
creating a better product? Why? In what ways?
2. Was there any significant feedback you received but chose to
disregard? Why? (For
instance, maybe someone gave you a suggestion for a big
change, but that
suggestion would’ve taken you further away from a goal you
were trying to achieve.)
3. If you could, what would you have done differently during
this writing process?
4. What challenged you during this writing process? How did
that make you feel, and
why? How did you respond?
5. What do you know about your own identity or experiences
that helps you
understand how this composition process went? How might this
reflection help you
in future writing situations?
6. What are you proud of from this writing process? How do
you feel now that it’s
over? Why do you think that is?
7. Project Planning
Do research on one-or-two large software systems that were
implemented successfully and on
one-or-two large software systems that failed in their
implementation. Write at least a 3-page
Word document, double-spaced, detailing each system.
Your paper should include a number of topic sections. Using
the concept of A.D.D.I.E., create a
section to discuss the A.-Analysis that went into the system, a
section to discuss the D.-Design of
the system, a section to discuss the D.-Development of the
system, a section to discuss the I.-
Implementation of the system (successful or failed) and a
section to discuss the E.-Evaluation of
the system (successful or failed). Provide the following:
1. An Introduction paragraph describing the assignment and a
short description of the
systems selected.
2. A section that describes the first Software System (with an
appropriate section Heading)
and a description of that Software System to include:
a. What is its purpose?
8. b. What operations it performs?
c. What are its inputs (resources, interfaces, when used)?
d. What are its outputs (interfaces, data)?
e. The system’s complexity/cost/feasibility.
f. Any constraints or risks found during the research.
3. Sections with details for each component of A.D.D.I.E. (with
an appropriate section
Heading) to include:
a. Success or failures identified.
b. Issues or findings identified.
c. Recommendations or lessons learned.
Your paper should then conclude with a Findings section the
compares the two systems. Provide
the following:
1. What made one system successful but make the other system
fail.
2. What could have been done to make the failed system more
successful.
3. What could have been done to make the successful system
even more successful.
9. You must include at least 3 scholarly references with citations.
