Doing some more Calibrated Peer Reviews.Seriously, I could CRY. On our last round, two out of three essays I marked were terrible. This round (writing a lab report introduction from a provided procedure/materials/results write-up) also seems to be following that pattern - the last one I marked was SO bad I was forced to flunk it. It's the first one

It sounds like cruel and unusual punishment, which, by the way, is "illegal" down here in the states.

Maybe your prof went insane from years of having to read them alone, and now they decided they've had enough, and they want to turn their students cannons, so to speak, back upon themselves.

I had to go back and put quotes around illegal, because, well... Bush.

Whoa. Those Peer review things seem to be really out of it. I really really sympathise! I can do the right format of a scientific report even if the content is light and pathetically worthless. :P

I just hope I won't have to do anything like that for my science classes this year! :S
