Critical Essay

You should, therefore, read the articles carefully and critically; think about and maybe discuss with others the ideas they contain.  Here are some suggestions to help you focus your thinking:

·      What topics are common to all the readings?

·      Which issue or idea discussed in these articles do you find most interesting?

·      What evidence or support from your own experience could you use to develop your essay?

·       What evidence or support do the readings provide?

In defining a FOCUS and DEVELOPING your ideas (see the attached Evaluation Standards for the meaning of these terms), you may want to consider these questions as well:

·      What social, political, or economic questions do you see raised by the articles?  How do you respond to them?

·      What value questions do you see raised?  How do you respond to them?  Can you articulate an arguable claim about these questions?

·      Are there aesthetic or scientific dimensions to the issue that would be interesting to raise?

you should always cite the sourse from the artilces that I have provided not resources are allowed from the Internet or other material. also, remember to cite the sources as MLA.
