[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, does it really, really matter? Most of the people on my college English Department use a set of canned responses per letter grade for essays. Then there is maybe one personal comment for feedback.

If we have 200 students per semester, each assigned four essays, do you really expect us to not use some shortcut?[/quote]

Do you teach at a large state school?

What an AWFUL way to teach writing!

I am a faculty member and write extensive personalized comments for all student--including those writing 20 page papers.

You owe them that, or you should switch your test format (short answer, multiple choice, presentations, etc).

You sound burnt out and should retire. [/quote]

I don't really need to justify my stock rubric and feedback forms, but yes, I am at a large state school. In my writing classes, students are given several shots at drafts ( with extensive, personal, and specific review from me) before they turn in a final draft.

By the final draft, they either know what they did wrong/right or they don't, and the rubric indicates clearly these areas. And for final essays, like end of the semester essays, yeah...I am not going to spend hours on specific commenting when grades are due in the tightest of timelines.

I choose to give them the most time to finish the essay, which means they are due at the final exam period. That's a gift.

If this is an upper level class, it is presumed they know how to write and the stock responses tell them why their grade is what it is, in a clear and detailed rubric. Then personal comments, one or two, are added about the actual content of the essay..usually one or two praises and one room for improvement.

Sorry if this means I should retire to you.
