Is missing two or more of the elements of an introduction.

Clearly stated argument progressed throughout the paper?HD Clear and well-integrated sense of argument that flows through the entire paper.

Argument directly referred to in the main body. Central argument is a clear driving force in the paper. All of the examples and arguments used directly relate to the main argument in the paper.

D Clear statement of argument in the introduction and conclusion, and indirectly mentioned within the main body of the paper. The argument drives the use of examples and ideas, though there is potential for improvement in the delivery and/or linkage back to the core of the paper.

C Some type of statement of argument in the introduction and conclusion, but reference to the argument in the main body is vague. Relates the examples used to the central argument, and there is a sense of a case being built. However, there are some instances where the links between them are unclear.

P Indicates that there might be some positions taken in the paper, but this is not made explicit and does not come through in the main body. Makes an attempt to build up a convincing case, but fails to adequately link the examples and ideas used to the central point of the paper's argument.

F Does not appear to contain any clear argument, either in the introduction/conclusion or in the main body. Does not link the example(s) used to the argument (if there is one) and there is no sense of the paper working towards making the reader understand the position of the author.

Uses some appropriate evidence and argument in the paper. The support chosen is broadly in alignment with the core argument of the paper, though there may be some misinterpretation of evidence and contradictory statements. Alternative viewpoints are not particularly well addressed. Uses quotes, though they may not all be relevant or used to best effect. The examples used are chosen to support the argument, though they may not always do so effectively.

Does not use appropriate evidence or argument. The support chosen is generally taken out of context or misrepresented, and opposing viewpoints are not adequately dealt with. Either does not use examples and/or quotes, or they are chosen poorly and they do not assist the argument being made (if one exists in the paper).
