4 Constitution Essay Rubric 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 and secondary source information incorporated to buttress every point. Examples support thesis and fit within paragraph. Excellent integration of quoted material into sentences. Factual information is LOGIC AND ARGUMENTATION incorporated. All ideas flow logically; the argument is identifiable, reasonable, >0 and sound. Author anticipates and successfully defuses counter-arguments; makes novel connections which illuminate thesis MECHANICS Language is clearly organized. Correct word usage, punctuation, sentence structure, and grammar; correct citation of sources; minimal to no spelling errors; absolutely no run-on sentences or comma splices. Promising, but may be slightly unclear, or lacking insight or originality. Generally clear and appropriate, though may wander occasionally. May have a few unclear transitions, or a few paragraphs without strong topic sentences. Examples used to support most points. Some evidence does not support point or may appear where inappropriate. Quotations are integrated well into sentences. Some factual information is incorporated. Argument is clear and usually flows logically and makes sense. Some evidence that counterarguments acknowledged, though perhaps not addressed. Occasional insightful connections to evidence are made. Sentence structure and grammar strong despite occasional lapses; punctuation and citation style often used correctly. Some spelling errors and at least one runon sentence, sentence fragment, or comma splice. Unclear (contains vague terms), appears unoriginal, or offers relatively little that is new; provides little around which to structure the paper. Generally unclear, often wanders or jumps around. Few or weak transitions, and there are many paragraphs without topic sentences. Examples support some points. Quotations may be poorly integrated into sentences. There may not be a clear point. Moderate amount of factual information is incorporated. Logic may often fail, or the argument may often be unclear. May not address counterarguments or make any connections with the thesis. May also contain logical contradictions. Minor problems in sentence structure and grammar. Multiple errors in punctuation, citation style, and spelling. May have several (two to five) run-on sentences, sentence fragments, and comma splices. Difficult to identify and may blend restatement of obvious point. Unclear, often because thesis is weak or nonexistent. Transitions confusing and unclear. Few topic sentences. Very few or weak examples and factual information. General failure to support statements, or evidence seems to support no particular point. Ideas do not flow at all, usually because there is no argument to support. Simplistic view of topic, and there is no effort to grasp possible alternative views. Very little or very weak attempt to relate evidence to argument. Huge problems in sentence structure and grammar. Frequent major errors in citation style, punctuation, and spelling. May have many (more than five) run-on sentences, sentence fragments, and comma splices. Has no identifiable thesis or an utterly incompetent thesis. Shows obviously minimal lack of effort or comprehension of the assignment. No evidence structure or organization. No attempt has been made to incorporate factual information or interpret primary and secondary sources. Too incoherent to determine. Very difficult to understand owing to major problems in mechanics. *This rubric is a composite of several rubrics used in several American and World courses taught at Barry University, Bowdoin College, Yale University, Manatee Community College, and Florida International University.
