Writing an essay ... CRITERIA

Next lesson you'll be writing your own essay suggesting solutions to problems.
You should refer to the general assessment criteria of written text  but these specific criteria should also be crystal clear:

Is the PROBLEM  clearly stated (its causes and consequences)?
Are TOPIC SENTENCES clear and relevant  according to the principle: 
-- 1 paragraph –> 1 problem  + expected results of proposed measure

Is there a suitable CONCLUSION?

Are ideas organised in a logical sequence?

Are  linking words used appropriately?

Is there clear evidence of recently acquired language/vocabulary?

Now, I'm sure you can self-asses your text.
