ENG 122 Summative Assessment Part Two Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
“Me Talk Pretty One Day” By David Sedaris
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Introduction: This is where readers will have a chance to get an idea of what your essay will be about. Do not give all of your information away here, but give readers a sample of what is to come. Do not forget to review your writing plan to make sure you are hitting all of the points you planned out, while also stating your thesis.
A. Provide an overview of the work you have analyzed, briefly describing main points and your thoughts about the writing. [ENG-122-04]
B. Compose an engaging thesis that you will support throughout your essay. This statement will give direction to your essay and should be well thought out. [ENG-122-02]
II. Body: The body is your opportunity to describe and support your thesis in depth. Make sure your thoughts and evidence are clear and organized in a way that is easy for readers to follow and understand.
A. Be sure to write multiple paragraphs that are focused, clearly state their intent, and move logically from one to the other, supporting the thesis as the essay progresses. These paragraphs also need to contain evidence from the selected reading. [ENG-122-02]
B. Your body paragraphs should support your thesis by combining thoughts and ideas with evidence from the writing. There is no such thing as a right or wrong evaluation; the key is how your thesis is supported and the quality of the evidence used. [ENG-122-04]
III. Conclusion: Think of the conclusion as a review of your analysis. Use this section to restate your thesis and remind readers of your supporting evidence. Think of this as your last chance to prove your point. You will also reflect upon your experiences with the writing process.
A. Review your analysis and summarize key supporting points that helped form your analysis. This section should consist of a review of your main points employed to support your thesis. [ENG-122-02]
B. Describe how what you have learned about critical thinking, analysis, and revision can be applied to future writing activities in your academic or professional life. [ENG-122-04]
