When I had to teach English Comp (small college – you had to be flexible) I noticed something called proof-reading would usually result in a higher score.
I had a professor who went over the results of any essay test in order to emphasize the importance of class participation. He gave one student full credit for a question despite the fact he answered with only one sentence. He did that because the student repeatedly demonstrated his grasp on the subject through his class participation. After class the student confided that he really had no clue what the answer was, so he hastily composed a short BS answer in the hopes of salvaging some points on the question. He never expected to get full credit.
