Let's take another close look at the article you read earlier on content curation. These are all features you will include in your article. The author has taken her topic and written an essay based on the work of other people. 

1. Introduction: Her introduction poses a question and then describes what content she will be presenting.

2. She has summarized and organized the content and links into sections using headings.

3. She has embedded links and a date right into her essay so that the reader can follow those links to deeper reading. Notice the different ways she does this:

  a. At the end of a quote (copied word for word),

  b. After a phrase (according to...) or

  c. At the beginning of a sentence using her own words.

4. Conclusion: Key points are mentioned and the reason why this is important are given.

5. References are listed.
