Instructions from my class notes:
For your appraisal you must compare and contrast your main book with other two books that you choose before. If we choose the book from the syllabus then compare and contrast with two outside books. In each paragraph of the 8-10 pages of the book appraisal you need to add your compare and contrast from other authors then close with your own analysis.
Introduction paragraph: Maximum 3 sentence of thesis statement. In those 3 sent. Use the 5 points you’re going to analyze. Illustrate 5 points the author made and give background information. Frist sentence give 2 points then 3 points and in the final sent. Give the last points you want to illustrate in the thesis.
Avoid I believe or I.
Each paragraph should be photographic you feel the author has made significance, analysis at the end. When we write the analysis data needs to be compare and contrast. When we are writing our compare and contrast the basic requirement is compare with what that your author has said with the two other authors.
All reports will use Times New Roman font, 12 pitch and double line spacing.?
**This will be checked on Safe assign, and multiple databases to prevent plagiarism. Please be careful**
I hope this is everything that you need. Please let me know if you need anything.
