Ada is correctly evaluating her essay because she may be able to reconstruct the thesis after identifying the topic and the main point in the essay. A thesis is made up of a topic and what is being said about that topic. The main point may have been developed but not stated through the claim / thesis.
Phil is also evaluating his paper correctly since he has noticed his thesis lacks enough evidence. A way to solve this problem is to gather more evidence.
