Formatting 50 Points, Resources 50 Points, and Deadline 50 points.

(100 Points) The essay has a clear grasp of the political issue and provides convincing support from the various readings regarding both sides of the issue. The writer demonstrates a strong command of the language through a

variety of sentence structures, word choices, quotes or paraphrases from the readings (consistently cited correctly). Control of usage and mechanics, despite occasional flaws, contributes to the writer’s ability to communicate the

purpose of the paper. The writer thoroughly understands the concepts/theories involved.

with the writer’s ability to communicate the purpose of the paper.

appropriately and cited correctly. Command of the theories and major aspects of the political issue under consideration is weak. Sentence structure tends to be repetitious, and errors in usage and mechanics sometimes interfere

with the writer’s ability to communicate the purpose of the paper.
