Do you know how to be creative while writing the evaluation essay? If you do not have any idea on this matter, read this article.

As it was already mentioned, any event can be a topic of your paper. Still, we suggest you to write your work on an unusual topic, even an imaginary one. Can you imagine that one day all the people on earth can disappear? Can you imagine that all the cities will be empty, that all the movement on earth will stop?

Probably it is hard to imagine the situation like that. Still, this is what will help you to make your essay extraordinary one. You will have to evaluate the life of our planet without people. Think how long all the things made by people will exist. Think in what time all the buildings will deteriorate. Or in what time the whole planet surface will be covered by the forests.

As for me, this is going to be a perfect topic for your paper, which will help you show all your creativity.

Evaluation essay is somewhat tricky, since it resembles an argumentative essay, cause and affect essay, and sometimes the students may confuse it even with a persuasive one. Still, there is one aspect that will help you to distinguish an evaluation essay from the others. You have to evaluate (assess) something according to particular criteria.

As this “something” you can take anything you like: a process, event, book, film, person whatever. Let me tell you about 3 main features of the evaluation essay, that you will definitely have to introduce in your work.

1)Subject that is properly described. It means you have to tell about what you are writing, but in details. At least you will have to mention those details that the reader should initially be aware of.

2)Making a judgment. It can also be called making a thesis statement. Within the rest of your essay you will be explaining your judgment and supporting it.

3)Making a persuasive argument. This is the key point of your work. This persuasive argument should be based on particular criteria. These criteria you will choose according to the general principles of describing something. For instance, you are evaluating a book. You will choose the next criteria: plot, the main characters and their roles, inner and outer conflict, outset and dénouement and so on. To make a better evaluation, you can compare this book with a work of another famous writer. But, you have to make sure that you have chosen the right criteria for evaluation.

So, I hope these features will help you to get the essence of the evaluation essay, and you will write it successfully.

Do you want to open you the biggest secret about an evaluation essay? Evaluation essay is about….evaluating things. Well, I am just kidding, however what I have told you is truth. While writing your evaluation essay, you will have to introduce your point of view on the topic by means of evaluating it.

Evaluating is not difficult, but you have to know its main principle. To evaluate something successfully, you will have to think of the criteria of the subject under discussion. After that you will discuss each criterion separately, and finally you will introduce the consistent image of the evaluated subject.

So, let us move from the theory to practice. We want to suggest you several topics for your evaluation essay.

Evaluate the role of the United Nations Organization in the modern international relations. Think whether its policy is successful; tell about its weak sides.

Evaluate the benefits and drawbacks of the Internet communication.

Evaluate the impact of the technological progress on the modern world. Think whether all the technological advancements can lead to the further prosperity of the humankind or there can be some dangers that we may face.

Evaluate the election campaigns of Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton. Think who is more likely to be successful during the president’s elections.

Evaluate any TV advertisement of some goods or services.

As you can see, the topics of the evaluation essay can be absolutely different. You can also evaluate any movie, book, a piece of music or work of any artist.

Every piece of the paper should be done in correspondence with certain requirements. The final grade on the paper made depends on how a writer managed to fulfill each of the requirements. This time we will discuss upon the main requirements for evaluation essay. Of course, each tutor establishes his or her own requirements for the paper assigned, still, there are the most general of them that I am going to present you:

• A good evaluation essay should be informative. If you write about the most general things in your evaluation essay giving no examples or proofs at all, your paper will be low rated. An informative evaluation essay should have an interesting and catchy topic that might involve a reader into participating in debates with you;
• A good evaluation essay should be formatted correctly. Each of the academic paper types is usually done according to the certain rules of the required style. The style is defined by the kind of research area you are dealing with. If you are working with psychology and exact sciences, you will have to write your evaluation essay in APA style, if you are likely to investigate humanitarians, MLA is required. That is why it is so important to keep to the rules of required style while writing your essay;
• A good evaluation essay should present an objective point of view on a certain problem. Inspite of the fact that an essay implies being subjective, evaluation should be carried out objectively.

So, before you start working on your evaluation essay, take the main requirements for it into consideration.

     Evaluation essay like all the other types of the essays allows you to get things better. While writing an evaluation essay, you will need to use a bit different technique of analyzing your topic. You have to think of the criteria according to which you will evaluate the subject under discussion.

     For the evaluation essay you can choose any topic. If there is something you want to find out more about, you can choose it as a topic.

     For instance, you want to evaluate your relations with a friend. You want to find out whether you are really best friends. What are the criteria that will help you to make the right conclusion?

     I think that the main criterion of evaluating any relations is the level of trust between two people. What trust is about? How can you understand that you can trust somebody? First of all, you have to know that there are two kinds of trust: materialistic and personal.

·         Materialistic trust means you trust a person and you can lend money him/her, for instance. This kind of trust is rather important, since it demonstrates that a certain person is reliable and in some serious circumstances you can be convinced of this person.

·         Personal trust seems to be more significant. It shows your close relations with a person, since you can tell him/her some things of personal or intimate kind. And you know that this information will be kept as a secret. It is very important for everybody to have a person who you can trust.

     So, try to think of your relations with any friend of yours from this point of view. It will help you to understand whether your friendship is real or just a fiction.

Evaluation essay is a kind of writing that presupposes your judgment on any possible issues: media, services, ideas, plans and so on. In the evaluation essay you will have to present your opinion on a certain issue, but you need to do it according to the following criteria: purpose, target audience, techniques used for presenting the issue, the level of objectivity.

In this article we would like to give a small example of the evaluation essay. And we are going to evaluate the film “Requiem for a Dream”.

Purpose. The main idea of the film is concentrated on the destructive impact of the drugs on our lives. We all have dreams and we want them to come true. It is one of the key elements of our happiness. People can make a lot to be happy and are ready to use all the possible means for that. However, some means are just an illusion that people are not able to distinguish from reality. So, the main purpose of the film is to prevent you from using drugs that have never made a single person happy.

Target audience. Definitely, the film appeals to the young people who usually want to get everything and in the short period of time without realizing the possible consequences of their deeds.

Techniques used. Actually, you will not see any special effects in this film. But the way the various events are described in the film is just amazing. You watch the film, and some anxious feelings and emotions are filling your heart and mind. It is really hard to describe all that. I will just tell that approximately a week, after watching the film you are really unwilling to talk to anybody.

The level of objectivity. I think that all the events in the film are described just the way they are. Nothing was invented or depicted in the unreal manner. What can happen to a person taking drugs? The main heroes will show you. You may be out of money and earn your dose with your body. You may go mad due to the great influence of the drugs on your psyche. You can just be imprisoned, since drugs are illegal.

Evaluation essay writing is a very troublesome process. You have to be on the look our all the time. Otherwise, the situation will soon become terrible, and it will not be too easy to find a solution. If the worst comes to the worst, you will have to write a new evaluation essay except of the one you spoiled.

So, what are the problems which can block your road to a perfect evaluation essay? Let us analyze them, and teach you how to avoid them.

1.If you cannot but treat the evaluated object partially, your essay cannot be adequate. Your teacher will notice it at once, and you will get a very poor grade for such a work.

2.Even if your treatment is impartial, but you cannot provide for the evidences of your point of view, you will be considered to be preconceived, which will be appropriately reflected on your grade.

3.If you are not attentive enough while conducting analysis, you can miss something important, and then you will be blamed for prejudice once again.

You see, the problems come to the same idea. You have to be attentive and impartial, and only then you can be evaluated high.

These problems are the most vital. And, what is sad, they are quite frequent. For a student who is not experienced enough yet it is quite difficult to be impartial enough and to provide for strong arguments. But if you want to get a high grade for your evaluation essay, you have to be very attentive and very accurate.
