|
Hi, dear coleagues.
This is my first year working with high-level writings and I �d like to ask you... How do you correct them? I mean, what symbols do you use with each kind of mistake? How do you valour them? Can you give me any good link concerning this?
Thanks in advance
Kind regards

I usually use this items to evaluate Coherence - grammar - spelling - paragraphing or layout - vocabulary. Each item has a scale from 1 to 10 (you can choose any) and the passmark is 6. I use "sp" to mark spelling mistakes, "gr" for grammar, "C" for coherence and "PL" for paragraphs"v" for vocabulary ( wrong word or collocations).
I hope you find it useful :D
