Your essay should address or contain a discussion of:<\/p>\n
1. The author\u2019s methodology<\/p>\n
2. The main ideas and contents (note that you must clearly identify the thesis, that is, the author\u2019s argument)<\/p>\n
3. Use of evidence<\/p>\n
4. How persuasive or convincing the book is<\/p>\n
5. Examine the strengths and weaknesses of the work (What are the
\nauthor\u2019s key contributions? What makes the book engaging or not? What is
\n missing from the account? Or, what might the author have done to make
\nthe argument more persuasive?)<\/p>\n
6. How does the work relate to other material covered in class<\/p>\n
7. Most importantly, how does the work confirm, challenge, or extend
\nyour general understanding of the Americans fears and anxieties about
\ntechnological medias and the internet and anxieties about it in today\u2019s
\nsociety.<\/p>\n
8. What audience will most benefit from reading this work<\/p>\n
Most importantly don’t simply answer these questions in paragraph
\nform. Draft a thesis that answers them, and use that thesis to drive
\nyour essay. Ultimately you’re evaluating the importance of Sconce’s work
\n and whether or not his argument is sound and he’s successful in
\ncommunicating that argument. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
