Interesting. As someone who also does a fair bit of grading (in a completely different discipline), I'd be curious to hear how you deal with people who are really far behind/struggling with basic issues. Do you try to point out every error/issue they need to address, or do you just try to focus on the big issues? Are you able to tell people that they aren't likely to pass given the work they've submitted, or would that be going too far outside the remit of your grading?
