Asking because I’ve never seen it stated in my syllabi, but do they base the amount of credit they give on something like the following:

1. Issue Spotted + Rule Applied + Correct Source = Full Credit

2. Issue Spotted + Rule Applied + Wrong or No Source = Partial Credit

3. Issue Spotted + Wrong or Misapplied Rule + Correct Source = Partial Credit

4. Only Issue Spotted = Probably No Credit

5. Stated Rule But No Application = No Credit

6. Issue Missed = No Credit

Or do they never give partial credit? Also, have you ever seen professors deduct points?
