Essay
*I will have to mark these essays very
quickly. I will not have time to do my normal extensive marking. I will look at
the overview writing for essay structure, i.e. paper format, paragraphing. I
will look for components of the introductory paragraph, i.e. grabber, topic
sentence, preview of 3 points. I will look for components of the body
paragraphs. Also, I will evaluate the overall quality of the sentences.
I will assign a mark out of six and triple
it, i.e. x/18
