In asking the students to create a persuasive essay, I would utilize a checklist type rubrics, which entails what content I want to see in the essay. Each section will have an explanation of the type of information I want in the paper with a column for the total number of points if all standards are met. As, the student goes through the section, they must initial that they have incorporated that portion of information into their essay. When, they turn in their essay they will turn in the checklist. As, I grade the assignment I will indicate the missing information and the point value for that potion. This allows the student to know what content was missing or omitted as well as the scoring effect that that discrepancy had on the essay

    Into The Wild Persuasive Essay

    On April 28, 1992, Chris McCandless stepped foot into the woods, a journey that would last four months, coming to an end much earlier than he would’ve hoped. In August of 1992, just four months after Chris walked alone into the wild, his perishing body was found by a party of moose hunters. Chris went into the wild hoping to get away from corrupt society and to live a transcendentalist lifestyle. His bold journey was going well until he made a silly mistake when he came across seeds from the wild potato. The seeds themselves are not what killed Chris, it was the amino acids in the seeds that caused him to slowly become paralyzed due to his malnutrition and physical state.…

    Rough Draft Persuasive Essay

    My advice to makayla is to never get stuck on one question no longer than five minutes. It's okay to skip a question and come back to it later once you have answer all of the other questions. It's also okay to guess intelligently on some of the questions. I feel that you shouldn't always linger on the same questions, because that can cause you to loose most of you time on the test.

Professors are expecting students of all kinds of study to have a high academic vocabulary and high writing skill. Often times a gap in remedial writing courses within the first semester or so.…

    SAT Persuasive Essay

    Assessment of our students’ academic progress is essential, but the mindset that high SAT or ACT scores will be a student’s only ticket into college is one that places unnecessary and unwanted stress on the average high school student. Colleges have relied on standardized test scores as a means of determining how college ready a student is and what opportunities and scholarships are available for them. While the SAT and ACT tests are intended to provide a fair assessment for students across the nation, they are simply not an accurate representation of a student’s potential because of the different circumstances which surround a student.

From this, I lost my audience’s belief that I was competent of the information I was reiterating to them. At the introduction of my speech I believe I started out fairly strong and gave a good run down of the coming speech.…
