Jim's Rubric -- How do I get to see it?

First of all, thanks, Jeana, for setting up the blog. I will encourage everyone here at PHS to get on also. I noticed the invitation Jena sent ended up in my spam folder. We may need to let everyone know to look there for their invitation.

Second, the hyperlinks won't let me view Jim's rubric. I assume Jim has to allow permission. If Jim doesn't get on soon, can we think of another way to get it?

Besides comparing the rubrics, it might also be useful to talk about how we are introducing, directing, and informally assessing argument writing. We might also want to respond to issues and ideas from Hillocks' book. I'd sure like to know what Jim has used from the book and how well he sees it working.

What do you all think?
