Paper 3
Read the Criteria
for Success
You are familiar with the descriptions which
detail the expectations for the paper. This is often similar to the prompt’s
detailed explanation of which components will be evaluated and scored. It is
important that you know how to read a rubric to guide your questions and ensure
your success in any assignment.
Review the Points
All components are important for you to
master; however, you will see that some areas are weighed more heavily than
others. Pay attention.
Your Score
Think about the paper that you have just
carefully revised and give yourself a
score. Should you get one out of two points? Six out of seven
points?
Write Your Rationale
Explain the reason why you gave yourself this score? Be specific and show your
instructor that you understand the expectations and how you fulfilled those
expectations. If you do not give yourself full points, what do you think needs
to change?
