Poems and the issue of double entry
Jan 21, 2015
First story
Just a few thoughts to share:
Some of the applicants have written a prose assignment and others have written a poem (and I understand that's fine according to the task rubric), but there are yet others who have done both, and maybe only tagged one of them "2013 VOF Week 2".
The first issue that this raises is that there are some really fantastic poems out there apparently going unread!
The second is the question of whether both the prose and poem should be taken into account in the reviewing. I've seen one example (not one of my assigned ones) where I felt the untagged poem would have gained substantially more points than the tagged prose, at least if I was evaluating.
Well, I know it's late in the day, but was interested to know how others felt about this.
Happy Sunday!
