The examples available from the rubric show you the source as well as actual student writing. You can compare the source and the student work and see for yourself how comparing the two shows all the violations of Good Habits for Evidence.

Why Having a Required Source Makes All
The Difference in Grading and Why This Course Is Like the World of Work |

This method of grading with the use of a required source changes grading. Think about this for a moment: · If students can use any source, professors cannot efficiently prove that the student’s statements are factually incorrect or plagiarized or “half-copy” plagiarism or based on an unreliable source or any other action contrary to the other Good Habits for Evidence. · If students must use required, reliable sources, students must prove they are following Good Habits for Evidence by their work. (A professor can efficiently prove the accuracy of grading.) This model for responsibility is closer to the one you will face on the job. Bosses will: ·
Either instantly recognize if you act contrary
to the basic Good Habits for Evidence in a way that has consequences for
their business ·
Or, if they do not notice and your action
later has negative consequences on their business, you will face the consequences. This model for responsibility is also closer to the one you will face with personal decisions. If you do not develop Good Habits for Evidence, you increase your odds that you will not notice your own error. If your actions have a negative consequence, you—and perhaps your family—will face the consequences. If you do not already have the Good Habits for Evidence, develop them now. Good habits can protect you. |
