Content
75 %

Poor

Content is inadequate. Support from various resources, when needed, is lacking or is inaccurate. No evidence that the writer understands the the assignment, that is, what's required to respond adequately to the demands of the assignment.
Fair

Content is barely adequate because it's incomplete or off the mark. Supporting arguments, when needed, are absent, incomplete, or misapplied. Hard to judge whether the writer "got" the assignment.
Good

There is adequate content that is supported by appropriate arguments. The writing speaks directly to the specific assignment. The writing doesn't necessarily impress, but it is definitely competent.
Excellent

There is more than adequate content that is well supported by appropriate arguments. Insight into the issues at hand is particularly sharp and the writer recognizes potential flaws in his or her reasoning.

Grammar, punctuation, & spelling
10 %

Poor

Paper contains far more errors in word usage, grammar, punctuation, or spelling than acceptable. Length of paper may also be less than expected. The writing is poor and there's no evidence of proofreading.
Fair

Paper contains several errors in word usage, grammar, punctuation, or spelling. Length may be somewhat less than expected. Ideas can be followed but there's no elegance to the writing and it's not clear if the paper was proofread before it was submitted.
Good

Paper contains very few errors in word usage, grammar, punctuation, or spelling. Length is very near what was expected with standard margins and font. The writing is crisp if not exactly elegant.
Excellent

Paper contains almost no errors in word usage, grammar, punctuation, or spelling. Length is appropriate with standard margins and font. The writing is elegant and sophisticated.
Structure
15 %

Poor

There is very little structure to the paper. Sentences are often unclear and transitions from one idea to the next are entirely absent or very difficult to recognize.
Fair

Structure of the paper is not easy to follow. A few of the paragraphs are likely to be disjointed, and transitions from one idea to another are often rough and inappropriate.
Good

Structure of the paper is sufficiently clear - it's easy to see where the author is going. Transitions from one idea to another are good - they make sense and illustrate the writer's understanding of the material. The writing is good if not exactly excellent.
Excellent

Structure of paper is sophisticated but also easy to follow; the paragraphs are well-built and transitions from one idea to another are clear and demonstrate insight into the issues at hand. Overall, the writing is excellent.
