I presented my ideas to the group today; we each had a discussion about our topics and fed back our ideas to each other.
Is this realistic for a 3000 word essay?
Yes, the topic is very important and fits in to todays issues within society.
Is the argument focussed or very general?
Might be a little too general, but valid. Good that I am relating to current affairs, it makes it more interesting and relevant to explore.
Does the question match the argument?
It does, there are lots of areas to discuss and write about with having an issue that is affected by so many external factors.
Do the sources and quotes match well?
They do, but more are needed to back up your points. Look into persuasive advertising more and health journals too.
Any suggestions? Sources to look at etc?
- Supersize vs superskinny (documentary)
- Books looking at weight loss
- Journals/articles about government spending
- Estudio
Feedback action plan
What feedback did I receive? What were the points?
- My argument is strong and has potential
- Good imagery to back up the points
- Look at more advertising sources
- The question matches my argument clearly
- Very good that it relates to current affairs
What are my priorities
- MORE RESEARCH!
- Spend an afternoon or a day just researching!
Plan of activities- Actions, resources, dates/weeks
- By December 13th: have all research and sources available. In this time, read as much as I can on the current government spending issues.
