download the rough draft, and make as many helpful comments and suggestions on it as you can. You can use the insert comment function on word, or you can simply write your comments in red.

Once you are done commenting, go onto the next page (add a new page to the essay) and answer the following questions:

1. Does the author present the issue in his or her introduction? Is the attention grabber effective? Is the background information sufficient? (If the reader had not read the article or seen the film)
2. Does the writer introduce the articles’ names, the authors’ names and the main point/argument of each article, somewhere in the introduction? (Introduce only the sources you will be using)
3. In the thesis, does the writer argue whether social media is helpful or hurtful to social justice? Is the author’s opinion clearly stated? Are you clear on his or her position from the start?
4. Does the writer support each of his or her claims with quotes from the articles, or SPECIFIC examples from his or her own personal life? Are the examples vivid and specific rather than general?
5. Does the writer explain why he or she chose this particular example? Does the explanation connect back to the thesis? Is there an explanation/analysis after each example?
6. Are all examples from the articles cited properly with in-text citation? Is the paper formatted in MLA style? Is there a works cited page in the end?
7. Does the writer have a conclusion that restates the thesis and gives a final thought?
