Does the abstract set up a full paper, not just an introduction?

Midterm Workshop

2

Please post your essay rough draft here by the due date and then critique two other essays before the close date.

You can upload files by finding the insert media icon at the top of the submission box or you can copy and paste it into the box. If you decide to copy and paste your essay, your peers will not be able to reflect on the formatting.

Please choose two midterm drafts from your peers and write at least 200 words per response answering the following questions.

– What are the WHAT and WHY? If they are not clear, how can they be clearer?

– Does it give a clear lens the paper will be examining its subject through? What is it?

– How does the summary effectively expand on support for the claim?

– Does or will each section clearly connect back to the thesis?

– How can the outline be more logically organized? How do you plan to transition between points in your paper?

-Are there any potential fallacies?

-Does the abstract set up a full paper, not just an introduction?

-Is there a call to action of some sort?

-Is there any unneeded information in the abstract (e.g. unnecessary source usage)?

– Anything else relevant.
