Introduction
Your essay lacks a clear introduction that sets the context for the topic. You should explicitly address the question and outline the structure of your essay.
Examples
It is important to provide specific examples from a range of sources to support your points. General statements need to be substantiated with more detailed information to show a deeper understanding of the topic.
Logical structure
To improve coherence, you should organize your essay more logically, using cohesive devices and paragraphs that follow a clear progression of ideas. Each paragraph should have a clear main idea and subsequent sentences should support that idea.
Conclusion
Your conclusion should summarise your arguments clearly and restate your position on the development's positivity or negativity, offering a more nuanced final viewpoint.

Fully explain your ideas
