Comments on other students' term paper benchmarks

Earning point for comments on term paper benchmarks submitted by other students:

• Comments are to be made on the Discussion page for the term paper proposal and for each term paper benchmark.
• Do not edit another student's work, even if they give you permission to do so. We may penalize a student for doing this. Each student must write his or her own term paper.
• Visit Editing help for help with writing on the wiki.
• Comments must be made by the deadlines to receive credit.
• Constructive criticism will gain points, up to a total of 1/2 point per benchmark. For example,
  • Pointing out a typo or a grammatical error will usually be worth up to 1/4 point;
  • Indicating how a sentence could be re-written will usually be worth up to 1/4 point;
  • Providing a thoughtful critique with concrete suggestions for improvement may also be worth up to 1/4 point.
• Students will be randomly assigned to provide critiques to other students.
• Each student will get evaluations from two different students for each term paper benchmark, so that a total of up to eight different students will critique your writing.
