Observation Reports Evaluative Writing
Evaluative Writing :- The art of recording your “judgements” in a
written format. The narrative needs to convey your judgement,
must be supported by evidence and it must convince the reader to agree with your judgement.
Evaluative Writing Makes judgements
Contains judgemental words and phrases.
Identifies strengths and weaknesses.
Judgements should be substantiated by qualitative and quantitative evidence.
