Look at or view!

I know. Was thinking the one-pager is a missed opportunity for an etymological deep dive.

also that definition of "write" is incredible.

I think it’s saying that they want students to give more attention to the structure and wording of their writing prompt than to the content of the passages.

it's been a long time since I took freshman comp, but I'm pretty sure "task verbs" weren't part of it

can I also just say "formulate a claim and support it with evidence" is backwards

I’ve started defining assessment terms in my history surveys - students often don’t know the difference between analyze/summarize, evaluate/explain.

Oh, man, could I rip this to shreds if they let me in on one of the meetings where they make this crap up.

That’s akin to calling a novel “literary fiction”
