IMPORTANT: This 25-point writing grade is for each student, who adds to the Group Report completely, accurately, and professionally, including all of the items under Goals.

If you're Student XD whose writing is in this report completely/professionally/accurately XD gets 25/25
but if Student XØ has no writing at all, XØ will get 0/25, or if their writing is partial XØ gets 19/25 for example.

This work is weighted ×5, such that earning a 5 earns you a 25 (5×5=25).
a 5 is excellent, for writing that addresses all of the above Writing Goals, little to no spelling/grammar issues, complete and appropriate use of borrowed information
if a 4, it's above average, addresses most of the topics or maybe does so incompletely, with some spelling/grammar issues, incomplete use of borrowed information
a 3 isn't awful, but it only addresses some of the topics, with frequent spelling/grammar issues, missing a majority of borrowed information and incomplete borrowed information
you score a 2 because it might have very little content addressed, too many spelling/grammar issues, lacks borrowed information
earning a 1–0 is for unsatisfactory, incomplete, or inappropriate work, zero (0) no work
