Problem
Critique the following two sample student essays. As you critique them consider the following questions:
A. Consider the topic and purpose of each essay. Does each essay use the appropriate type of process (Instructional or Informational/Explanatory)?
B. Does each essay include all of the information the audience needs? Is any vital step or piece of information missing?
C. Does each essay present the steps in a clear, logical order? Are they grouped logically into paragraphs? Should any steps be combined or relocated? If so, which ones?
D. Does each writer use enough transitions to move the reader through the process? Should any transitions be added? If so, where?
E. Is each essay interesting? What descriptive details would add interest to the essay?
