provided to give insight into the organization. A partial
description of the industry of the organization is presented.

the organization or industry. There is no indication that these
pressures are driving organizational change.

unclear how this prediction relates to the organization and
industry. The types of organizational change likely to occur
are absent.
Significant evidence is needed to establish support for both
the analysis and prediction.
Thesis is insufficiently developed or vague. Purpose is not
clear.
Sufficient justification of claims is lacking. Argument lacks
consistent unity. There are obvious flaws in the logic. Some
sources have questionable credibility.

reader. Inconsistencies in language choice (register) or word
choice are present. Sentence structure is correct but not
varied.

argument presents minimal justification of claims. Argument
logically, but not thoroughly, supports the purpose. Sources
used are credible. Introduction and conclusion bracket the

not overly distracting to the reader. Correct and varied
sentence structure and audience-appropriate language are
employed.
