A.
The topic sentence of your WCR should be
a direct answer to one or more of the
prompt’s question(s).
It should be only one
sentence
. If it is more than one sentence
then it is not a topic sentence or main idea.
B.
In the body of the reflection you most
support your main idea with the evidence
you have annotated/highlighted from your
reading of the materials. I strongly
encourage you to explain this information
and the examples you select in your own
words. Do not quote from the materials
unless you believe the authors’ words
cannot be expressed better in other words.
If you quote, you have to cite the source
(author and or title of primary source is
sufficient).
C.
In the last sentence of your comment, you
reaffirm the main idea you have offered in
your topic sentence. This is your
conclusion.
B.
Assessment: My reading of your CR will assess whether your submission
demonstrates 1) you understand the prompt and assigned materials; and
2) your ability to organize your ideas and the evidence you have
collected in a strong paragraph (topic sentence, evidence, and
conclusion).
