Comments or Suggestions for Improvement 

Please compose at least three full sentences for each element (many elements will likely be longer once you begin explaining and offering feedback). Be specific, adding examples and suggestions where needed.

Structure and Unity: Is the thesis statement narrow and clearly arguable? Do the points in the body and the content of the conclusion clearly support the thesis statement? Please be specific and offer reasons, suggestions and examples.  

 

Organization: Look at the ordering of body paragraphs and at the ordering of sentences within the introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion. Is everything arranged in the most effective order for you, as a reader? Please be specific and offer suggestions, reasons, and examples. 

 

Voice: Is the writer’s voice the driving force of the essay? Is each paragraph written with the writer’s voice from the first to the last sentence? Is the writer using voice to connect and explain the evidence used? Could the writer do more to expand on the evidence, to argue for the value or meaning of the evidence? Please be specific and offer suggestions, reasons, and examples. 

 

Flow: Does each sentence flow smoothly from one to the next for the reader? Does each paragraph? As the reader, do you feel guided by the writer’s words? Do you sense any missing connective elements that would make the essay more reader-friendly? Please be specific and offer suggestions, reasons, and examples. 

 

Introduction and Conclusion: Has the writer employed the most effective methods for writing this introduction and conclusion? Consider the techniques we have studied, pointing out what works well and why and what could be done better and why/how. Please be specific and offer suggestions, reasons, and examples.    

 

Source Use: Do the sources work well to support the points in which they are used? Run a quick source evaluation, using the CRAAP test. Then, are sources integrated smoothly, and does the writer make the connections between the sources and the writer’s arguments clearly?  Please be specific and offer suggestions, reasons, and examples. 

 

Argument Technique: Comment on the effectiveness of the argument techniques you see in the essay, such as logos, ethos, pathos, kairos, and elements of the Toulmin model. Also, comment on any logical fallacies you see. Finally, comment on the argument genres you notice and on how well the writer has employed those. Please be specific and offer suggestions, reasons, and examples.
