Two major advantages I'm trying to get here: 1) shorter papers sharpen writing. Students have to make more decisions about what to say and what to cut, which are important skills in actual writing, both in daily life or in publication. 4/6
2) by making the connection explicit, I hope to answer that nagging questions students might have as to 'when am I ever going to use them' - a college student ought to think they might one day want to write an op-ed about an important issue. 5/6
It connects the artificial form they are learning, The College Essay, with the actual forms that we are supposed to be teaching them to be able to produce. Naturally I still make them write it like an essay (footnotes, etc), but at least with a more practical length. end/6
Addendum: I really, *really* prefer to use word-counts for paper-lengths because 1) that's what publishers, in my experience, actually do and 2) there is less room for students wasting their mental energies trying to find ways to cheese the length system.
