But there is MORE THAN ONE error. 3 - YES, linked and convergent premises mostly correctly, with AT MOST ONE ERROR. 4 - YES, ALL linked and convergent premises identiﬁed correctly, with NO ERRORS Criteria 5 - 8 relate to the student ’s standardistion of their own argu ment Criterion 5 Are the premises and conclusion clearly stated, and are they relevant to the topic ?

But FEW have been correctly identiﬁed 2 - SOME linked and convergent premises are correct. But there is MORE THAN ONE error. 3 - YES, linked and convergent premises mostly correctly, with AT MOST ONE ERROR. 4 - YES, ALL linked and convergent premises entirely correctly, with NO ERRORS Criteria 9 and 10 relate to the student ’s 150 - 200 word comment / reﬂection Criterion 9 Is there a clear and well - focused comment about how the arguer chose to respond to Tetek?
