introduction conclusion present
Ensure that your essay has a clear introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion. While your essay included an introduction and conclusion, focus on creating a stronger thesis statement that directly addresses the extent to which you agree with the statement. Also, each body paragraph should elaborate on one main idea, followed by supporting arguments or examples.
logical structure
Your essay showcases an adequate logical structure. However, there can be better transitions and linkage between your points. Aim to use a variety of cohesive devices such as conjunctions, synonymy, and reference words to create coherence across sentences and paragraphs.
supported main points
The main points of your argument are present and align with the essay prompt, but further development and support with specific examples and evidences or studies would strengthen your ideas. Mention real-life statistics, reports or studies that support your perspective.
complete response
Provide a fully developed response to all parts of the task. While your essay touches on the broad idea that government funds should address public issues rather than extraterrestrial research, delve deeper into the extent of your agreement and explore the opposing viewpoint to demonstrate a thorough understanding.
clear comprehensive ideas
Your essay displays clarity and presents ideas comprehensively. However, to improve clarity and depth, ensure that each paragraph develops a singular idea fully, rather than introducing multiple ideas which may not be fully explored.
relevant specific examples
Include relevant examples to support and illustrate your points. Although you mentioned the case of education in Indonesia, provide more specific examples, data, or case studies that directly relate to how government spending on earthly issues can take precedence over space exploration.
