Reaction Papers

The completed Reaction Paper should be typed in a double-spaced format with the correct APA citations, formatting and references. The scholarly paper assignment is to be no longer than 2-typed pages in summary format and it is expected that the student will devote a great deal of initiative toward producing a quality scholarly product worthy of the high academic standards established at Saint Leo University.

The paper will be evaluated based on the following criteria:

a. Thoroughness: How extensively does the paper develop the issue? Does the student show depth and understanding of the subject, or is the analysis superficial? Does the paper clearly identify its focus and logically analyze and discuss the topic?

b. Scholarly quality: Does the assignment meet acceptable college level standards with respect to form and substance? Are the ideas presented in a clear, concise manner? Are there numerous typographical, spelling, or grammatical errors? (Each such error deducts points off the grade). DO NOT QUOTE OR CUT AND PASTE INFORMATION TO DEVELOP OR WRITE YOUR PAPER. USE YOUR OWN WORDS AND SUMMARIZE. CONTENT OVER 20% WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

Rating:

Exceptional corresponds to an A- to A (90-100). Performance is outstanding; significantly above the usual expectations.

Proficient corresponds to a grade of B- to B+ (80-89%). Skills and standards are at the level of expectation.

Basic corresponds to a C to C+ (70-79%). Skills and standards are acceptable but improvements are needed to meet expectations well. Novice corresponds to a D to C- (50-69%). Performance is weak; the skills or standards are not sufficiently demonstrated at this time. 0 This criterion is missing or not in evidence.
