Great job on your introduction and first section of your assessment. I would encourage you to keep things within each criterion section heading of your grading rubric.

I do not see this in your assessment. You will need a section heading for this criterion section. You will want a summary of alignment and then a graph that shows how the organizational strategies align with the departmental strategies. There should be an alignment between these.

Nice job on this...I would add a heading for this section and place your summary of the scorecard here instead of up with the first criterion sections. This will keep it organized, then you can add your graph under this section OR you will need to reference the graph within this section in order to add it to the end of the paper.

Faculty Comments:

You have great information in this section, but I need clarification on why you keep calling this a study. This is not a study, but an assessment of a specific department's strategic plan in relation to the organizational plan. All departments should have strategic plans that align with the organizational plans. The organizational plan is more overarching while each departmental strategic plan is more specific to areas of need and policy for that department. I am a little confused by the way this assessment is going...
