Assessment instructions
Identify the deliverable, audience, required format and any stated constraints in the current task.
Scoring guide
Identify the criteria and performance expectations that the response must address.
Current stage
Decide whether you need help with planning, research, drafting, checking or revision.
Evidence need
Determine whether the task requires finding, evaluating, synthesizing or citing sources.
Program context
Use program-specific guidance when the subject area changes the evidence, terminology or expected analysis.
Evaluator feedback
If you are revising, connect each evaluator comment to the criterion and section it affects.
Follow the assessment workflow
A clear sequence reduces confusion and helps the reader move toward the correct next action.
Interpret the instructions
Identify the required action, deliverable, audience, format and constraints.
Map the scoring guide
Give each criterion a clear place in the outline and note the evidence or explanation it needs.
Find focused evidence
Search for sources that answer the exact question instead of collecting broad background material.
Draft and compare
Build the response around the task, then compare the draft with the scoring guide for missing analysis or evidence.
Revise feedback point by point
When evaluator feedback is available, make the specific revision and verify the affected criterion again.
