John S Grades Globalization

Page history last edited by John Siewert 2 yrs ago

Warning, I'm a little crotchety this morning, so I'm being a little more honest than usual, nothing personal :)

 

 

Content (5): 3

Grammar/Spelling (5): 2

Cover Page (3): 3

Audience(2): 1

Readability (5): 2

 

Total: 11/20


      Content (5): Overall you had some good information. You threw in some quotes which added a little authenticity. However some of your information I found to be really generalized, it almost felt like I was reading the same sentence over and over. I didn't care for the Pro vs Con thing up front, it had no set up and if I was reading it for the first time I would have been confused. I would have incorporated it into the body of the paper along with your opinion. This sentence is an example of one I found confusing:

With the added ability to trade among any avenue (land water air...cable technology) the world is quickly becoming a large and vast arena for the multitudes.

Doesn't globabization make the world smaller?


      Grammar/Spelling (5): I graded this one pretty harsh and gave it a 2. You had several runons, a lot of you sentences were longer than they needed to be. Spelling wasn't bad, you spelled almost everything correctly, the problem was you used the wrong words entirely. below are some examples:

 

It is admittedly a board(broad) and amorphous term

 

expedient and officiant(efficient) manner

 

people is that is(it) can

 

 

For instance Wikipedia says of(about) the start of globalization


      Coverpage (3): Your coverpage was fine.


      Audience (2): I'm not sure who you were aiming to reach here. I guess people concerned about globalization; but it read more for someone who didn't know much about it. I didn't really learn anything. In your opinion at the bottom you seemed more concerned about the countries left behind, I would like to have read some details about that. I guess I would focus on one audience, those that don't know about it, or those that do and want to know the world-wide implications.


      Readability (5): Unfortunately if you missed a few things above it really effects the readability of the paper. But if you nailed the things above it's like free points. Outside of the things above, readability includes how it looks. In my opinion any unformatted wiki page looks like crap to start with. It's brown and boring and paragraphs (at least you made a few) are all blocky. But we can change all that! Want to indent? click edit page, then cut and paste the code I used to indent.

      In my opinion, there isn't any need for the sidebar on any finished assignment, so cut and paste this at the start of your page: <style type="text/css">#sb_sb {display:none;} #sb_ra {display:none;} #sb_qs {display:none;}</style>
