Your entry at Deindustrialization
You seem to have used more than just OECD website for the assignment, that's very good. It would be great if you could add a note on the reference you had used in Harvard style (ex. "Literature (Smith 1999) has stated that...") and add the publication data to the References section at the bottom of the article. You may also want to indicate you have used OECD (2008) data for the rest of your analysis. You may want to add an interlink or two (like Finland) to the paragraph, but it's not obligatory. A little more analysis with a few numbers would be useful, your entry would vastly benefit from some hard numbers. Your entry seems to have drifted somewhat from discussing deindustrialization to discussing economy of Finland in general, adding some numbers illustrating your claim that "According to the statistics on the OECD website, Finland is not deindustrializing" would be quite helpful. Overall it is a good piece, and a solid B which I am sure you will easily upgrade to an A with a few minor changes I outlined above. PS. In the future, it may be a good idea to complete such assignments a bit earlier, but your grade is not affected by this for now, particularly as this is a new type of an activity for us all.
