Description:

Using one of the techniques outlined in class and gleaned from the reading, write a 3 to 4 page evaluation paper.  You will assess an album, movie, book, or restaurant and use details to support your argument. Your paper should:

     *Use details from source material to support points

     *Utilize comparison strategies to support points

     *Use one additional source for support

     *Avoid asserting opinion without qualification

*Use logical transitions to guide the reader from thesis to     conclusion

Strive to write a paper that flows from sentence-to-sentence and paragraph-to-paragraph.
