Writing Composition

Week 12 – Writing an essay, final draft (deadline: December 11)


Read the feedback on the first draft of your essay from your classmates and me (Pavla Buchtova). I focused mainly on the argument and the structure of your essay. If I could not see any space for improvement in this respect, I commented on other aspects of your writing. 

Peer assessment (2 points)

If you have submitted the writing task for this session, you can assess someone else’s writing. This time, however, I offer a slightly different task. After reading someone else's essay, write an outline of the essay. It should contain:

  • a thesis statement/main argument
  • main points of each body paragraph

I hope this will be a useful feedback for the author of an essay, s/he will find out if s/he managed to express her/his ideas clearly.
