1. Looking at the breakdown of your verb choices here, what do you notice about your current draft?
What I notice is that most of my verbs are active general. The verbs I use the most after active general is active specific, and I used passive the least.
2. Based on this analysis, how could your use of verbs be improved overall in the project?
I definitely could use more active specific verbs in my project because I feel as though it would make my project stronger by describing more specifically what the stakeholders, and people involved in the controversy, are doing.
