Exploration 1: Q3, Q4, and HeadStart Q1

Q3: This essay provides evidence from both sides of the argument, they may not be actual/proven scientific facts but they give the reader a basic idea of what the arguments are about and whats being said about the specific teaching methods. There is alot of evidence from what people have said through interviews and articles, i didnt really see any scientific data to show which program is struggling or what is the best way to teach bilingual education. I feel this is somewhat effective to get a point across, but there is to many variables to consider any of these idea's hard evidence.

Q4: Elmore's subject headings are very straight forward. They give the reader a heads up and kind of lets the reader know before hand what that paragraph will be about, that way they arent reading through it trying to figure out what the point is of that excerpt all while missing the actual content. I think they are perfect for a research essay.

---HeadStart---
Q1: Well I feel that the second essay was more effective at showing data and evidence from certian government facts like the budgets and numbers of students who are being served through this Head Start program. I liked how the second essay was more persuasive using government data (which everyone believes). The first essay could have a used a bit more hard evidence.
