identified and summarized in his or her own words as the thesis of the essay. “The author of this essay, Jon Pahl, believes that malls have become America’s newest place of worship, a belief shared by fellow author and religious studies professor, Ira G. Zepp. Pahl quotes Zepp, who believes malls function much the way a typical place of worship would, as some sort of community, instead of a place of commerce and business. Zepp also explains how Americans don’t just go to malls to shop, but they go to be a part of a larger group of people, coming together because they all share an interest in the same things.”

Did the writer provide a specific and objective
summary of the essay? Yes, the summary was very objective. What evidence can you find that proves the author was objective? Vanessa used the 3rd person throughout her essay. At some points, she used the 2nd person which made me feel like I could relate to the essay.
Did the author paraphrase at least two passages?
Yes, at least two passages were paraphrased.
Did the author provide at least two quotations?
Yes, a total of 3 quotations were provided.
Identify at least two examples that the author used to
support his/her summary. In the 2nd paragraph, Vanessa provided some examples of why the concepts of water, light, and trees could be seen as religious symbols and why they would be used in a mall.
Identify any minor details that the author included
that you believe distracted from the summary’s main argument. Explain. (The writer will lose points if he or she includes minor details; conduct a complete analysis or review.) I didn’t feel that Vanessa brought any minor or weak details to her summary. I read the essay that she summarized and everything she included had a purpose for this summary.
Did they author write a one-paragraph response to
the essay’s main idea in his or her conclusion? Was it relevant or meaningful to the summary’s main audience? (You are the intended audience.) The conclusion paragraph was more of a summary of the ending of the summarized essay rather than a response to it, although it was relevant to the summary.
Did the author include proper citations and a works
cited page? (Since you are publishing online, just include a heading for Works Cited and any sources used in your summary. In this case, it will probably consist of one item, the summary essay.) Yes, she does include proper citations and has a work cited section. The only thing needed is a header for it.
