Critical Contemplation for this essay means

• You're jet-skiing through research.

• You project only your own views and nothing else.

• your paper should demonstrate that you have looked at all sides of the issue you’re presenting and that you have looked at the issue as deeply as a two-thousand-word paper allows you to do so. It means you’re adding your own discovery, from your research, to the pool of thought that already exists on your topic.

• You simply project what experts are saying and don't add anything of your own.
