Rubric and Grading

Page history last edited by VRBurton 12 years, 4 months ago

 

Once you have been officially assigned your TED Talks, select the order you wish to analyze them. Each Friday you will submit one written analysis for one of the TED Talks you are looking at.  

Task

Each of your written submissions will be graded individually based on the following criteria:

  1. Clear introductory paragraph with thesis.  This only needs to be a couple of sentences in length.
  2. 2-3 body paragraphs with a minimum of 6 sentences each.
    • one paragraph should summarize the Talk
    • at least one paragraph will express your opinion on the talk, looking at the argument presented, the delivery skills, and persuasiveness of the Talk 
  3. Clear conclusion and recommendation.  This only needs to be a few sentences in length.

The writing will be assessed based on writing style/voice, grammar, and ability to persuade.
