Comment

I have removed the link to lkwdpl.org/study/bookrep\\ as that page links to many paper mills. the existing reference is enough. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 85.202.152.213 (talk • contribs) 12:46, May 10, 2006 (UTC).

POV of section

Shouldn't this section not say what should someone do, but rather what is usual? SmileToday☺(talk to me , My edits) 00:31, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's just a wording issue, a quick tweak will fix it.

This article sounds as though it was written by a kid

This article reads like it was written by a kid with a big vocabulary who decided to make a page for his own teacher's instructions on how to do a report. A book report is an assignment given out by teachers and its standards are not tightly defined and vary widely from place to place, even teacher to teacher. I have to ask, is this article even really necessary? There just isn't much to say about book reports, and I'm sure a brief mention in say, the article on books, or eduacation, or whatever would suffice. 24.74.141.22 05:04, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

British equivalent?

Are there anything like book reports in British schools? I had an unconventional British home-schooled education so I've no experience to go on as to whether we have anything parallel to the all-pervasive American "book report". If this is just an American phenomenon, does the article need to say so? --PeterR (talk) 19:42, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Of course there is. Teachers don't seem to rely on it as much, but book reports are issued. --79.65.69.70 (talk) 13:17, 31 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
