== Evaluation Comments == | |||
Well done, folks. Your article is comprehensive without being too bulky. This is a good starting point for college students in English hoping to get an overview or starting point for a better understanding of literary criticism. | |||
That said, I think the post needs more support overall. Some could be outright plagiarism. For example, this sentence — “Literary criticism is how users evaluate and interpret art.” — needs support, and it should perhaps have multiple sources. Any statements like this that read like facts, need to be supported with evidence. Sources need to be cited on a sentence-by-sentence basis. | |||
As far as plagiarism, the list of resources under “Early critics and texts” is exactly copied from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literary_criticism#Key_texts Wikipedia] without giving any credit to this source. On a standard paper, this would be plagiarism, plain and simple. Here, it is, too. Why would you not give credit? This is of paramount importance. Rather than a failure, this will cost a letter grade. It also makes me think more of the information int he document might be plagiarized. Are there any other sections? It appears all of your textual example are stolen from Wikipedia. | |||
This needs to be fixed before I can evaluate this project, please. | |||
Please do so by Friday, July 18 and Tweet me when this is fixed and I will complete my evaluation. | |||
