This article by Maja Wilson explains why "efforts to standardize language through rubrics and generalized comments provide a disservice to students and undermine the power of the reading and writing experience":
"Why I Won't Be Using Rubrics to Respond to Students' Writing."
Thanks Ann, an interesting article about providing layered and specialized feedback. I do struggle with this in history though because essays often have/need less of a 'voice' than the essays Wilson uses as examples. Interesting read though - liked her luggage opening.
