Each correction must clearly, accurately, and fully explain what the correct answer is and what specifically about the question, text, and response makes it the right answer. When I read the answer, I should be able to understand your meaning without referring to the text.
Here's an example:
#4. The author uses the phrase :On the same ground" (lines 12-13) to set up a comparison between
(B) conceptually powerful writers and exemplary educators
When we answer this question, we will want to find evidence from the text showing discussion or writers and educators addressed by the phrase on lines 12-13, and then explain how they are being compared.
The author begins by describing "effective educators" (6) who "bring into activity the feelings and sympathies that must issue in noble action" (11-12), and then "On the same ground" describes "effective writers" (13-14) who "rouse in others the activities that must issue in discovery" (18-19). These descriptions compare the skill effective educators and writers have in fostering the mental conditions that result in discovery, rather than merely feeding information to the reader or student.
- All test corrections must be done in class or during PACK time.
- All work must be your own. Sharing responses or dividing responsibility for work defeats the purpose of the test corrections assignment. Assignments showing unauthorized collaboration will receive zero credit for the entire assignment.
- Completion of a response is not a guarantee of credit retrieval. Responses will be graded rigorously.
