Excellent
Criteria Feedback
- The student shows strong understanding of how the three fathers function as contrasting models of masculinity and care.
- The student's references are relevant and usually support their argument well, especially when they use dialogue and scene detail to illustrate interpretation.
- The student consistently connects the series to broader ideas about gender roles, representation, and audience expectations.
- Some broader claims about audience and industry motives are more asserted than demonstrated.
- A few interpretations would be stronger if the student tied them more closely to specific moments in the episodes.
- At times the argument becomes a little general, which slightly weakens the persuasiveness of the student's reading.

B.1Analysis of textual features and author's choices
Good
Criteria Feedback
- The student analyzes visual and verbal choices with real purpose, not just what happens in the scenes.
- The student makes effective connections between technique and meaning, especially in their discussion of framing, awkward comedy, and parody.
- The student often moves beyond description to explain what the show is suggesting about family and social norms.
- Some points move too quickly from a technique to a broad conclusion without enough unpacking in between.
- A few interpretations become speculative when the student infers intentions or likely reactions rather than staying anchored in the text.
- At times the student could explain the effect of a choice more precisely instead of treating the technique as automatically meaningful.
