[quote=Anonymous]It sounds the class involves critical reading and writing about research? Does the teacher use a grading rubric? I teach several courses at the college level where students have to read, write, and present about published research. They also have to propose a novel research question and detail how they would carry out the study. It’s a very different way of writing than what you do for English class. Someone who is a good writer can struggle with it if they don’t understand how to explain the significance of a problem, create logical flow, and synthesize rather than summarize. I rely heavily on my rubrics to help the students understand where they need to improve. [/quote]
