How can the Criterion service be used for writing remediation and in basic skills writing classes?
Professors assign the Criterion standard topics or use their own topics to give students opportunities for additional writing practice. The Criterion topics library contains a group of writing assignments called “College Level/Preparatory.” These topics are graded against a lower level scoring rubric and can be assigned to gradually move incoming freshmen up to the first-year writing level.

Professors may assign topics to encourage students to focus on problem areas that will improve their writing. The immediate feedback features of the Criterion service provide additional motivation for students to write and revise their essays when writing on their own.
