- PRIVACY: put the grade on the *second* page, so that it is not visible - SIGNING: put your initials, so that people know whom to contact, if they want a regrade - EXPLANATIONS: no need to give the solution - we'll publish them - but clearly mark the penalty/score, and mark the reason of your score I suggest you put 'check-marks', whenever the answer is correct. - CONSISTENCY: write down the list of rules and penalties, for partial credit, for consistency. Eg., "missed the referential IC from 'gym' to 'customer': [-1]" - DUE DATE: let's have the grades ready by Monday night, so that we return homeworks on Tue - SORT questions by student last name
