BC - How will we know if our fallacies meet your requirements? I would like to ensure that I have everything done before our next class but I am not sure what to count and what not to count towards the completion of the assignments. I am pretty sure I have the blogs covered but not sure about the fallacies assignment.
Thank you :)

I suppose the first answer is that you won't any more than you would know that an essay is adequate before it's graded. Of course, I realize that there's some extra tension here because you all have more experience with essays.
First, I should say that having a less-than-complete or a partially mistaken response for the fallacy assignment does NOT mean zero credit nor zero credit for the fallacy itself. If you have commented on 10 fallacies, you have completed the assignment. If you have commented well on 10 fallacies, you can expect a good grade. If your comments are perceptive, convincing, and follow instructions (that is, you point out what the piece means and how the fallacy works), then you should get a good grade.
As to how I evaluate the individual fallacy, the comments I have made on fallacies that have been posted display in short form the thought process I will go through in evaluating these.
