Olivia, I really enjoyed this post and I think you have a very interesting topic. This study did a good job at looking at what other studies did and then improving. I especially liked when you talked about how "high levels of positive feedback, training, and instruction lead to...

Hatou, this was a very interesting post. I think that the racial tension in this book is best shown in Atticus, and I think you did a really good job of explaining that. Specifically, I like when you said "Atticus faces certain forces and pressures. He is defending a...

Jillian, This was a very interesting post and I think you were able to cover a lot of different topics. I liked your argument that the two most important parts of the American Creed are backgrounds and education and I agree that those two things are very important. Specifically,...

Anna, I think this is a very interesting topic and I would love to hear more about this. I had never thought of the idea that the glorification of serial killers would have such a negative effect of the families, but that is a very important thing to consider....

Maxim, this was a very interesting post and I think you raised a lot of good questions. I liked the way you backed up everything you said with research because it really helped you get your point across. I particularly like the research that said that "the top 10%...

Patricia, This is a very interesting post and I think it is even more relevant with the recent admissions scandal. I especially liked the way you talked about the economic benefits of college and cited data for that. You used a lot of good examples to get your points...

Maggie, I think the idea that humans are naturally fascinated by things we don't know about, even when that means murder, is interesting. I liked that you used Ted Bundy as an example because of the new movie about him that has received a lot of backlash. I would...

Diego, this was a very interesting idea you presented in this post. I especially liked when you said that "both Parties are responsible for the citizens being fed constant propaganda," because even though the inner party orchestrates it, the outer party contributes just as much. While I don't think...

Hi Carla, overall I agree with your post and I think you have made a good argument. I like that you broke your argument down into three main parts, and analyzed each one separately. In particular, I thought it was interesting that you talked about teachers being victims of...

Evelyn, you have made a very compelling argument about why schools should be able to restrict students' speech on line. I particularly like when you say, "Cyberbullying is a reality, but in many cases like those previously mentioned, it could be prevented by students’ online speeches being limited." Using...

David, this was a very informative post. You were able to outline a strong argument in your first two paragraphs and then support your claims with an abundance of statistics in your video. The fact that just under 20% of students graduate with more than $50,000 of debt...

Maggie, I really enjoyed this post. I did not know that so many women were held by police for protesting. I particularly liked when you said, "It is time that we stop condoning sexual assault and giving offenders power." This was a powerful line because it plays into the...

Olivia, I greatly enjoyed this post about the elections in the United States. I particularly like your conclusion where you say, "Nine percent of elections since our founding, the will of the people has been ignored, the people haven’t represented as they choose." Your word choice and tone are...

I really enjoyed this post, Mia. I thought you looked at American fears with an interesting perspective by combining traditional horror stories with more realistic fears people have currently. I especially like your conclusion about the importance of horror in the media, where you say that "they help us...

This was a very interesting post, Li. You were able to provide valid arguments for both sides of the issue which was very impressive. Looking at environmental issues and the potential to solve those issues was a smart perspective to take because it made it relevant to your audience....

This was a very interesting post, Jacob. I did not realize that race was a major issue when discussing the death penalty. I think that this was a great perspective to look at to argue against the death penalty because it is so difficult to use morals to make...

This is a very compelling argument that you make, Fredrick. The fact you inserted at the end of your post, about how the "U.S. Treasury is expected to run a 2017 deficit of $693 billion," was a strong statistic to convince people about the importance of this issue. In...

I greatly enjoyed this information, Olivia. In particular, your final sentence that explained how "the system of our elections has had the ability to be fair in the past, but the spike in corruption and foul play has proved our elections have many shortcomings in terms of speaking for...

Please wait...
