Abstract Grading Policy
Abstract and Commentary Grading
I believe that everyone will do some grading in this class.
I am going to make grading assignments randomly.
If I need more grading at the end of the semester, then
graders will get to repeat.
When given a grade sheet and a set of abstracts,
the grade sheet and abstracts should be returned within
one week (you the grader lose points for being late with the grades).
I really do not want to badger you, so please grade quickly.
Finally,
I will review what you have done, so if you have a problem
with a particular abstract, so indicate.
Abstract Grading Policy
For abstracts the grading is rather straight forward:
-
Read the Abstract.
-
Comment on spelling, proof reading, etc.,
in particular checkout the completeness of the header.
-
Make sure that the abstract fits the required topic.
Note, abstracts may not be exactly what I asked, as
some people might have read a required article previously.
Just make sure the article is pertinent to the class.
-
Make sure that there is some commentary on the worth of the
article.
-
Grade on a 0, 1, 2
basis
-
0 - very few, tried to sneak in something not appropriate
-
0 - or, no comments, just a summary.
-
1 - usual grade, a reasonable abstract
-
2 - very very few, a unique abstract, e.g., one year a student
read a book for each abstract and in some cases wrote the author
about the worth of the book.
If you give a '0', make sure to say Why
