Content (x3): 67% Assignment instructions asked you to underline your thesis and topic sentences. Please read assignment instructions carefully before completing assignments.
Introduction: This intro mentions your main topic and describes a cause-effect relationship related to that topic. What is your response to your chosen topic though? If you are taking a cause-and-effect approach, the intro and the rest of the essay need to share your insight about the influence that cause has on effect. The intro needs to include an analytical thesis and related key ideas. These concepts (thesis and related key ideas) should be the focus of the entire essay, especially the intro. Thesis and key ideas should meet the thesis criteria shared on the course site and linked from the instructions for essay #2.

Body: topic sentences are not identified, but the underlying issue is that topic sentences are absent. What are your key ideas for this draft? Most of the writing is used to describe or explain what is portrayed in the book. There are also some generalized observations about “relationships.” Perhaps the most responsive moment is when you describe Vladek as “cruel.” Maybe there is a response germinating in that judgment. Is there more that you could say about Vladek’s cruelty and its influence on some later relationship portrayed in the book? There is an opportunity for analysis there. Each body paragraph needs to share a specific topic sentence/key idea that meet the criteria mentioned above and linked from the essay #2 assignment instructions.
Conclusion: this final paragraph describes your main topic and offers some interpretation by explaining the meaning or significance of Vladek’s break-up with Lucia. I would like to see a response though. What do you want to say about the influence of that break-up/mistake? Please use the conclusion to further develop your thesis, adding some fresh insight or final analysis.
Organization: 64% Sequence of topics seems random, and topic sentences are missing (or limited to thematic/descriptive statements). Please use topic sentences to emphasize a response to your topic and use each paragraph to support and develop a topic sentence. There is a certain amount of repetition, which is not necessary in a short essay. It may be helpful to return to a key idea, such as your thesis, but in that case the idea should be further developed with additional insight and analysis. Please organize the essay around a logical sequence of analytical topic sentences.
Expression: 72% This draft is written more like a letter, using personal language (e.g. personal pronouns and direct address). The letter-writing exercise was assigned for your brainstorming assignment, just to begin the process of developing ideas and highlight the concept of audience awareness. As you prepare your essay, please aim for a more academic tone. Art Spiegelman is still your audience, but you are now writing an essay, which is quite different from writing a letter. If it would be helpful to see an example of an essay using an appropriate mode of expression, please check out some of the sample essays shared on the course site. On a deeper level, you can develop more of a voice in your writing if you more consistently express and develop an analysis of your chosen topic.
MECHANICS: Please note that grammar/punctuation does not factor directly into assignment grades. However, grammar-related distractions will lower the Content score.
