Mastery of Concepts:
1. Identification of nonfiction element is inaccurate or needs clarification and development
2. Clarify connection between the text you identified and your characterization of the element
3. Explain relevance of this element to the meaning/message/purpose of the whole text.
Completion / Attention to Detail
1. All elements need full discussion and analysis.
2. Complete your ideas -- don't force the reader to make assumptions or draw conclusions about missing ideas /support
3. Make sure you are showing analysis and understanding of the author's writing choices; don't just summarize literal meaning.
Quality of Writing
1. Vague word choice can lead to lack of clarity or generalization. Please clarify description
2. Brevity of writing leaves ideas unclear or incomplete. Please develop detail and explanation
3. Use transition phrases to clarify relationships between ideas -- what are you referring to at each point in the response, and why is your comment relevant?
