One thought on “An analog for rethinking the “academic essay”?”
That’s interesting. Thanks for sharing this article on whether restaurant reviews have become too formulaic and are unnecessarily limited and self-limiting in their formulas. The analogy asks us to question whether the same is true for the kinds of essay performances we ask of our students. One note: at the end of the day, though, when reading a restaurant review, I think I’m always going to want to know the same thing: is the food any good there?
