    The document discusses analytical rubrics for assessing responses to a question about discussing the Art of Governance in 10 sentences or less. It provides criteria for excellent, good, fair, and poor responses regarding the introduction, body paragraphs, examples, conclusions, spelling/grammar/punctuation, and choice of words. An excellent response would directly address the topic, have a clear thesis, be well-organized with specific examples, and clearly conclude by restating the thesis. A poor response would lack organization and clarity throughout.
