Self-Evaluation/Peer-Evaluation Feedback Sheet

Please review each of these items carefully before handing-in your paper:

1. Thematic Structure--Introduction: To what extent does the paper follow an overall theme or thesis? Is the thesis stated clearly at the beginning of the paper? Are the main sub-themes introduced early in the paper?
   
   
2. Flow: To what extent does the paper make orderly transitions between sub-themes?
   
   
3. Internal Consistency: To what extent do the paragraphs and citations support the overall theme?
   
   
4. Documentation: Are all assertions of fact (e.g., "learning is best through experience') documented (e.g., Dewey, 1929)?
   
   
5. Personal Opinion: Are personal opinions clearly stated and supported (although not necessarily with citations)?
   
   
6. Professional Formating: Is APA style used throughout the paper--in the paper's structure, citation format, and reference format?
   
   
7. Writing with Style: Are the word choice and sentence structure sufficiently varied to maintain reader interest?
   
   
8. Writing with Clarity and Organization: Is the paper clearly laid-out—does it have section headings and/or other evidence of organization?
   
   
9. Spelling and Grammar: Are there an excess of grammatical and mechanical errors that disrupt the flow or continuity of the paper?
   
   
10. Thematic Structure--Conclusion: At the end of the paper, does the author rehearse the main themes and bring to conclusion all key ideas?
