First Draft of an Evaluation Writing Assignment (Review)

Write a 750-1,000-word review of a social media application (pick whatever social media app i.e Facebook) . You will write this review for the general public, so you might target a particular publication, such as a student or local newspaper or one of the national magazines. This will help you anticipate what your readers already know, what they value, and what criteria they accept as a basis of evaluation.

Your review should also describe the website you have chosen, and then explain how it does (or does not) perform the criteria you established above.

Review chapter 11 “Reviews” in the textbook, which includes sample reviews and advice on writing reviews.

Augment your understanding and perspective on these facts and elements by consulting at least two scholarly sources outside of class texts. Use the GCU library for sources. Include this research in the paper in an appropriate scholarly manner.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the GCU Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

The final draft of this assignment uses a grading rubric. Instructors will be using the rubric to grade the assignment; therefore, students should review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the assignment criteria and expectations for successful completion of the assignment.

You will receive completion points for the first draft based upon the successful submission of your draft. The points are not an evaluative statement about your draft; be sure to consider all instructor comments as you revise your draft.
