Teaching-mode agnostic, execution oriented, cheating resistant term paper assessment method

This report describes a novel assessment technique to evaluate written assignments such as literature reviews, essays or research proposals (henceforth called term papers) over the course of the academic semester in multiple milestones. Key features of this method include encouraging student self-regulation and spacing of learning, scoring progress using quantitative elements, improving the authenticity and transparency of the written work, and guiding students towards towards better writing and thinking skills. This assessment protocol has been seeded on a public repository on GitHub where educators worldwide can contribute and develop the technique further.
