Talk:Aesthetic Rationality

From Geography

Rating (from 0-10, 10 being the highest, and 6 being just sufficient)

1. Relevance: 8/10: The page has a high relevance for this course. Aesthetic rationality is a part of the theory of communicative rationality by Jürgen Habermas. Which is an important element in the Language pragmatic action theory. A theory that has a prominent place in explaining spatial action.

2. Well-written: 7/10: The page is well-written, there are no spelling mistakes and grammatical is it also okay. Besides there is a professional standard used. No major facts are neglected and the subject is placed in the context.

3. well-researched: 5/10: The research for the page is not good enough. For the page they used one source. Besides, another source is name in the text (Cooke 1994), but this one is not mentioned by the references. The reference (Habermas, 1984) is on the other hand not mentioned in the text. Also there is reference to a certain figure 1., that's not on the page. .

4. Broad in its coverage: 4/10:The page addresses the main aspects of the topic. But the text covers for the most part information about related concepts. I am aware that some explanation of related theories and concepts is necessary, but now the ratio is skew and lots of the information about the other related concepts is superfluous.

5. Neutral: 8/10: The text is written neutral. There is no criticizing performed by the authors.

6. Stable: 8/10: The page is pretty stable, the page is over time enhanced by three people, who did not change the page significantly.

7. Well-structured: 3/10: The structure of the text is very moderate. There are no headlines and the contributors used different ways of presenting their text, this makes is difficult to follow.

8. Illustrated: 9/10: There are no illustrations in this page, but these are also not relevant for this topic (to abstract).

9. Length: 8/10: The length of the page is good, but through the bad structuration it's difficult and uninteresting to read.
