90-100
The paper is distinguished by its erudite consideration of a complex thesis.
The style is elegant and
virtually free of surface errors. The writer has conducted and smoothly
incorporated impressive research into
critical sources. The writer has met all of the process requirements of the
assignment (deadlines, meetings,
etc.) |
80-89
| The paper is a competent analysis which argues from a satisfactory thesis.
The works and time periods are
well represented and there is a reasonable stab at critical analysis. The
writing is logical and correct; though
some points may be superficial, redundant or unrelated. Critical sources may be
included but may not be
particularly relevant or enriching. The writer has met most of the process
requirements of the assignment. |
70-79
| The paper inadequately or incorrectly fulfills some of the requirements of
the assignment. The thesis may be
obvious. Information about the works or time periods under consideration may be
incorrect or merely factual.
No attempt has been made to seek information from outside sources. The writing
is simple and contains
errors in grammar, spelling, and/or punctuation. Some or all of the process
requirements for the paper were
not met. |
Below 70
| A paper receiving a grade below 70 is unsatisfactory in so many ways that it
must be revised. |
