Option 1

Article Title: Cognitive Skill

Article Evaluation:

This article could work because it is neutral and reliable with many citations although it focuses moreso on the cognitive skills of memorizing and speaking rather than writing.

Option 2

Article title: Cognitive Linguistics

Article Evaluation:

This article is closer to my topic than the last. It has several sources for everything it refers to and could be useful for my page. It does adress how the brain uses cognition to apply to different languages and grammar and how it processes those things, rather than how writing and the brain have mutual benefits for eachother.

Option 3

Article title: Cognitive Rhetoric

Article Evaluation:

This article is good as it uses some of the same sources I have referred to for my own research. It goes into strong detail about how cognition differs the writing results through personal expression. So relatively similar but not strong enough to use.

Option 4

Article title: Writing Process

Article Evaluation:

While this article is fully flushed out with neutral perspectives and reliable sources, it only address the cognitive process of writing in the very first step. If I were to be using this article I could add into this section of cognitive thoughts but it would pretty vague.

Option 5

Article title: Revision(Writing)

Article Evaluation:

This article touches on some of the subjects that I address, like metacognition and how thinking about thinking can be helpful in the ultimate process of writing. The article seems to be neutral and reliable and could work if I weren't expanding on a larger topic.
