  • Focus Question Response Grading Rubric:
    • <7 is considered an inadequate response
    • 7 (70% C) - Basic response with little depth (concepts) or reading evidence. Too short too develop an adequate response.
    • 8 (80% B) - Thoughtful response with some concepts or reading evidence.
    • 9 (90% A) - Thoughtful response with clear use of concepts developed in the course and clearly uses and refers to the ideas of others (readings etc.) to expand upon, support, or exemplify the development of your ideas, opinions, and theme.
    • 10(100% A+) - Excellent answer, thoughtful, clear use of multiple concepts, clear evidence of reading and incorporating ideas from the reading and class into a well developed, supported, and reasoned response.

     

  • My definition of a good response essay is one that is organized, uses correct grammar and spelling, uses your own ideas and experiences, and most importantly uses and refers to the ideas of others (readings etc.) to expand upon, support, or exemplify the development of your ideas, opinions, and theme.
    A poor essay would be one with simply unsupported (thus uninformed) opinion, no evidence of the use of readings to inform the theme, undeveloped, or with gross misuse of the english language.
