Unit 2 essay

Here is a link to my rough draft for my unit 2 essay.

2 comments:

  1. Aims---to explain how the Ft. Hood shooting evolved through the news as time went on.
    Methods---Introduces how newspapers and blogs work together in order to develop the essay.
    Materials---sources from the New York Times
    Key Passage---"From my reading of different blogs and news stories I have come to the following conclusion, news sites want the facts, while many bloggers give their take on the whole ordeal. The main difference is fact and opinion."
    Strengths---very good personal input
    Weaknesses---lacks backup from sources

    Well written paper. Good conclusions drawn but needs more backup.

  2. Aims: possibly to show how the Fort Hood shooting was first broadcasted on, and how it grew.
    Methods: compares and contrasts blogs versus the New York Times
    Materials: New York Times
    Key Passage: "I have found that a combination of both blogs and news sites is the best way to obtain information about a major story."
    Strengths: begins to show opinion
    Weaknesses: is unfinished

    I like how you have started out, but you need to continue.
