In this forum, post your thesis statement (a complete sentence) and a brief outline for the critical evaluation essay. For your critical evaluation essay, you will probably want to evaluate the same essay that you chose and discussed in last week's Forum. In fact, The Week 2 Forum was designed to allow you to get a head start on your critical evaluation essay by first analyzing your chosen essay within Forum 2, before developing it further here, in Forum 3.

Then, discuss how you plan to show how your chosen author uses ethos, pathos, logos, etc. Choose one original example of this support, and explain how it was effective in the essay's argument. Cite this example correctly using MLA style documentation.

Finally, consider the following. During this section of the course you evaluated an essay. How can this sort of critical evaluation of another author's work be used in future courses at APUS?
