Waleed,
This looks pretty good overall, and you’ve done a nice job with your 3rd column. I left a
comment about expanding your research, which might not make sense this late in the
semester. However, one thing I’d definitely like you to work on is framing your
summaries with topic- and concluding sentences, as well as referring to authors. This is
something that will help you when you write about other sources in any class/situation.
