Bring a print out your thesis draft to the session

Hand printout your to your colleague.

Read your colleague's text.

Make notes for feedback.

Go through the list of guidelines for readers and consider the degree to which your colleague has met those criteria. Remember this is a first draft, so it's a good opportunity to help the writer consider how to improve their text.

guidelines for readers

• Is the central question clear?
• Is there a clear development of an argument?
• If not, what measures, in your view, can be taken to make the text clearer?

Note: When the writing tutors make the final grading in trimester six, the thesis and the final project are graded together (see criteria in handbook).

To help you make an assessment of the (draft) thesis specifically, here are the outcome criteria for essays that the students are encouraged to follow:

• Intelligibly express your ideas, thoughts and reflections in written English 
• Articulate in writing a clear direction of your graduate project by being able to identify complex and coherent questions, concepts and appropriate forms 
• Clearly structure and analyse an argument 
• Use relevant source material and references 
• Research texts and practices and reflect upon them analytically 
• Synthesize different forms of knowledge in a coherent, imaginative and distinctive manner 
• Position ones own views within a broader context 
• Recognize and perform the appropriate mode of address within a given context 
• Engage in active dialogue about your written work with others
