Assignment 1:

Before you start writing your own review, let's have a look at some writing tips. The link: Review writing tips. Also take a look at the list of requirements for writing a review. Is everything clear?

Now that you know what needs to be in a review, we are going to take a look at a review on The Lonely Planet Guides. The review is quit long, but skim through and check if all the requirements for a review are there! The link: Review lonely planet guides.

Assignment 2:

In order to write your review you need to analyse your book/film/article or travel guide first. For this assignment you will use a London travel guide. The link: London travel guide.

Now ask yourself the following questions:

After seeing this guide, do I want to visit this city?
Do the layout and the visuals appeal to me?
Is the language understandable and clear?
Does it give me all the information that I might need?

You can write your answers down and brainstorm your ideas. Perhaps making a mindmap is helpful or make a list of pros and cons.

You are (finally) going to start writing your review! Make sure that you write your review in GoCongr under the button 'create' on the main page and write it as a note. Then you can share it with the group that you are in! I will give feedback on each review.

Keep in mind:

Good luck!
