Abstract

Brief excerpt from interview: I developed it myself. After taking the workshop with you. Overall, it's ok. You always wanna re-tweak it. But students will say, 'I corrected all my grammatical mistakes, shouldn't I get 100?' And the answer is, 'No, I've set it up so that if it's exceptional, you get a 10. But I've also set it up so that if you hand it in and do a decent job, you're gonna get an 8. If you don't address a problem, you're gonna get a 7' . . .
