The "Twenty-Four" Hour Rule

When Diedrich returns a Timed-Write, he will not address any concerns a student may have about the essay for a period of 24 hours. I am sure that most have heard about this policy. Diedrich wants everyone to reread the passage as well as the written response-along with a "glance" at the rubric. In addition, Diedrich requests that students ask others to share their Timed Write-especially those who received a score of 6-7-8- or a 9. Furthermore, he would like everyone in general to share their writing, asking for feedback.
