Components of Evaluations • Criteria of evaluation is the standards to judge anything. • We need to reflect on the criteria of evaluation (ie. grading) • The evaluation needs evidence to support the claim. • They differ according to time and audience.
Types of evaluations • Quantitative Evaluations: This argument relies on criteria that can be measured, counted or demonstrated mechanically. (ie. A race) • Qualitative Evaluations: This argument relies on personnel opinion, values and emotions. (ie. Who is better looking? Which movie is better?)
How to develop an evaluation Claim: This movie sucks! Criteria: Good Cinematography makes a good movie. Evidence: This movie had bad cinematography. (Note: evaluations DO NOT follow this specific order)
Evaluations often need a paragraph explaining what you’re evaluating and why.
