University of Virginia, Dept. of Psychology
About this course: I led three 20-student discussion sections in an independent supplement to a 250-student lecture course in child development.
About this document: TAs graded all papers in this course, although the lecture professor set the paper topics. At the beginning of the semester, I wrote a set of paper-writing guidelines to help students, especially the many first-years (freshman). This particular student received an C-minus, because although she started with potentially interesting claims, she failed to support these with evidence, and structure the argument tightly. Note that in my margin comments, I focus on important areas for improvement, but do not attempt to mark all possible corrections.
