Answer criteria

Criterion named + before/after revision shown + addresses the specific weakness = 4; revision but doesn't address criterion = 3; surface revision = 2; no revision = 1
Hints
  1. Avoid surface revision (commas) — address the substance issue named in the criterion.
  2. For weak warrants: name the principle. For weak counterclaim: steel-man + cite refutation evidence.
Misconceptions to watch
  • Revises a different paragraph than the weakest.
  • Surface revision instead of substance.
