In grading submissions, the following criteria will be considered: topical relevance, coherence, and length.
Topical relevance means the written work must clearly relate to the assignment. Coherence relates to the clarity
of both the position being expressed and the writing. A clear position is one whose ideas mesh. Writing quality
speaks to how well those ideas are communicated. Grammatical breakdowns, misspellings, inappropriate word
choices, and improper punctuation interfere with effective communication. In order to evaluate what you say,
it is necessary to understand what you say. [HELPFUL HINT: Careful proofreading can go a long way toward
insuring that your ideas are clearly expressed.] Finally, students must meet the length requirement specified for
the assignment.
