61. Mechanics
    mechanics. mechanics are the technical things about grammar, spelling, punctuation,and Capitalization. In general, try to avoid unnecessary capitals.

    Extractions: Mechanics are the technical things about grammar, spelling, punctuation, and other aspects of writing that make a big difference in how well your writing is received. Mechanical mistakes damage the credibility of your information by making it seem carelessly or hastily put together. Mechanical correctness, on the other hand, makes your information trustworthy, believable, and well thought-outbut it makes you look good, too! Use numerals (figures, not words) except for noon and midnight. Use a colon to separate hours from minutes, such as 10 a.m., 3 p.m., 4:30 p.m. Use periods and lower-case letters with a.m. and p.m. (not AM or P.M.). You state the time to be exact, so don't add redundancies: 9 a.m., Jan. 25. Capitalize the names of months. When a month is used with a specific date, you can abbreviate it (Jan., Feb.). Spell the month out when using it alone. (Example: The food show is set for March.) When a phrase lists only a month and a year, don't separate the year with commas. But if there is a month, a day, and a year, use the commas. Examples: January 1998 was the wettest month on record.

    Extractions: Information Literacy Blog Scoring Rubrics Part I: What and When. ERIC Digest. by Moskal, Barbara M. Scoring rubrics have become a common method for evaluating student work in both K-12 and college classrooms. The purpose of this Digest is to describe the different types of scoring rubrics and explain why scoring rubrics are useful. A companion Digest provides a process for developing scoring rubrics and describes resources that contain examples of the different types of scoring rubrics and offer further guidance in the development process. WHAT IS A SCORING RUBRIC? Scoring rubrics are descriptive scoring schemes that are developed by teachers or other evaluators to guide the analysis of the products or processes of students' efforts (Brookhart, 1999). Scoring rubrics are typically employed when a judgment of quality is required and may be used to evaluate a broad range of subjects and activities. One common use of scoring rubrics is to guide the evaluation of writing samples. Judgments concerning the quality of a given writing sample may vary depending upon the criteria established by the individual evaluator. One evaluator may heavily weigh the evaluation process upon the linguistic structure, while another evaluator may be more interested in the persuasiveness of the argument. A high-quality essay is likely to have a combination of these and other factors. Developing a predefined scheme for the evaluation process reduces the subjectivity involved in evaluating an essay.

    Extractions: FOR COLLEGE PAPERS A MS Word Version of this text [printable on one page] is available Students sometimes do not understand how a paper is graded. The explanation of grading here derives from standards for Advanced Placement exams, and is called a "grading rubric". Note that this is the standard expected of good pre-college students. It outlines basic elements of a good paper, and attaches grades to them. The basic grade of a paper derives from its content. The difference between the higher and lower grades here may depend on issues such as presentation. The Superior Paper (A/A-) Thesis: Easily identifiable, plausible, novel, sophisticated, insightful, crystal clear. Structure: Evident, understandable, appropriate for thesis. Excellent transitions from point to point. Paragraphs support solid topic sentences. Use of evidence: Primary source information used to buttress every point with at least one example. Examples support mini-thesis and fit within paragraph. Excellent integration of quoted material into sentences. Analysis: Author clearly relates evidence to "mini-thesis" (topic sentence); analysis is fresh and exciting, posing new ways to think of the material.
