Writing Homework Help

I’m studying for my Writing class and need an explanation.

Here you will submit your summary of the first set of readings for this week.

Summaries should

• Identify and explain the main ideas of each text
• Compare the main ideas of the texts to highlight the authors’ various perspectives (if you have more than one reading)

Your summary should:

• Identify using the author’s name the text you are discussing
• Include a clear topic sentence that identifies the author’s main point(s)
• Explain supporting points for each article
• Make connections between articles, if you read more than one

Summaries should be 250 to 500 words.
