Comment on introductions in class today!

Hi All-

-Go to your introductions.
-Comment on the introductions right BEFORE yours and right AFTER yours.
Comments should include:

1.  Comment on organization.  Does it make sense or should some material be moved around?
2.  Comment on content:  Is there enough context?  Too much?  A clear thesis?
3.  Comment on interest level:   Is it interesting?  How could it be more interesting?
4.  Check for thesis:  Is the thesis clear?  Does it address two perspectives?  Is it specific?
5.  Check for errors:  Spelling?  Grammar?  Fragments?  Varied sentence length?  Verb tense?

You may then begin to revise your own.  The introductions must be revised and typed on paper for tomorrow.

Post your introductions here.
