Your evaluation must answer the following six questions.
What is the question (or problem) the author is attempting to answer and what is his/her main argument?
What are the main claims the author makes to support his/her argument (you may identify up to 4 claims)?
a) What evidence does the author offer to support the claims?
b) What is the quality of the evidence?
What assumptions or biases has the author made?
If you were to write an essay on this subject, what would be your argument on this question/problem (for instance, do you agree or disagree with the author’s argument and/or claims, and why?)
If you were to write an essay with this argument, what possible assumptions and/or biases would you need to be aware of?
