Just as I finish marking the first lot of essays, the next lot starts coming in. *sigh*
Much easier to give everyone 0% - you can almost always justify that.

That wouldnt be good for me.

Just make sure you don't read your essays a few years later, the two I wrote in first year are shocking and could probably be used as evidence in crimes against the Englist language. The funny thing is I don't remmember activly getting any better and grammar and punctuation over the past three years but I must have done.

Probably because I wrote rude things all over them!

I have a Primary school project on New Zealand my mother saved to shame me with in adulthood. Never mind uni essays, you should see the unutterable shite you did as a wee bairn!
George Michaelson
I have some stuff from school and I'm actually rather impressed by it!

It can't be that bad marking essays you gave Frank Fung 8/10 in a 127 essay in which he wrote about his favorite street fighter characters, their combo moves and how he was crowned street fighter champion in Clayton Arcade. I think he still has it as he was showing it off when we were in the third year as we didn't believe him. Should have known better and believed him....

I could suggest a solution to that particular problem but I don't think it would be practical. The students would like it though ;-)
Chris McKeown
I think giving us all 100% would be a very good idea. Essay writing is my worst thing.
Rob
Marking interesting essays is OK. Marking the dull ones is not! You try reading 30 essays about teleworking!
