evaluating an article

  1. Read this article (Links to an external site.) by Molly Osberg about Kursat Pekgoz.
  2. Consider the way the article uses quotations
  3. Consider the article’s use of logic
  4. Consider the article’s use of emotional appeals
  5. Write three body paragraphs of no fewer than three hundred (300) and no more than four hundred (400) words each to explain the conclusions you reach in Steps Two through Four. This means that you’ll be writing a total of nine hundred to twelve hundred (900-1200) words.
    1. Use these body paragraphs to discuss the issues in steps 2-4 specifically. In other words, use a paragraph to discuss quotations, a paragraph to discuss logic, and a paragraph to discuss emotions.
    2. Don’t forget the importance of formal elements such as the TETS pattern for body paragraphs.
    3. Remember to quote from the article to help your reader understand what you see in it; what words or sentences does Osberg use to show you how she appeals to emotions or uses logic?
