Task

What to learn from this essay:

To foster an appreciation of philosophy, values and history. Emphasis of the aspects of the relationship between humans and its implications for the environment.

Essay:

1.  Write a clear thesis statement that sums up the position for which you are arguing.
2.  Provide a ‘road map’— in the introduction a few sentences that announce in sequence what you intend to accomplish in each of the key stages of your writing. Road maps often rely on first person, but if you prefer that you don’t use the first person, you can instead describe what your essay will accomplish 
3.  Try to make your expository writing as clear and accurate as possible and try to show the logical connections between the different parts of a philosophical system. Avoid vague or overly brief exposition, serious omissions, or misunderstandings.
4.  In this assignment you need to expounding but not evaluating a concept or theory. For example: “Explain what Plato means by Forms.” Subsequent assignments in the course usually involve evaluation as well as exposition (e.g., “Outline and evaluate Plato’s theory of Forms”).
5.  You will need to think about both its strengths and weaknesses. For example, is a particular theory of art (such as the view that art is the expression of emotion) comprehensive: does it apply to all the arts and all types of art, or only to some? Is it logically consistent or does it contain contradictions? Are there counterexamples to it? 
6. As you think about your topic, you should work out and assemble the following:

•     The strengths of a philosopher’s theory.
•     The arguments the philosopher gives in support of the theory and those the philosopher did not provide but which might still support it.
•     Possible criticisms of those arguments.
•     How the philosopher has replied or could reply to these criticisms.

A different type of critical evaluation assignment may ask for a comparative appraisal of two or more theories. For example, “Which account of human decision-making is stronger: X’s free will theory or Y’s determinist theory?” In such essays, your writing could be that one account is better than the other or, perhaps, that neither account is clearly superior. You might argue that each has different strengths and weaknesses.
