Juliana, please don't worry about the question and discussions that
followed your email. The reason why the thread became controversial and a
long debate is because assessing articles quality has been hard for
everyone I guess. Not an individual problem, but a movement problem for
which nobody has the perfect answer.
I think some good inputs came out of this and that's obviously your call to
decide the best way to grade your students. You've been constantly
experimenting and this is important to find pros and cons of the
methodologies you try.
Perhaps, establishing a minimum contribution (a complete paragraph with
references? I don't know) could help you establish a baseline and you
wouldn't have to be counting bytes (we can help you on this, but believe
me, it can be hard, especially when they work in groups, or forget to login
etc).

Prizes depending on the number of bytes would be really cool and
pedagogical.

articles from scratch.
Has anyone used this approach? Pros/cons? What would you consider a
reasonable number for the minimum of bytes in the final article?
Juliana.
