Have we checked that our paragraphs followed the TEEL structure?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

Arranging the reasoning around the given question and options, we start by restating what is being asked: whether we have checked that our paragraphs followed the TEEL structure.
Option a: 'a. YES' asserts that the check has been completed. If this is accurate, the rationale would involve verifying that each paragraph begins with a Topic sentence aligned to the paragraph’s main idea, includes Evidence to support claims, provides Explanation of how the evidence supports the point, and ends with a Link back to the overall argument or to the next paragraph. In practice, confirming TEEL would mean showing a checklist or rubric where each paragraph meets these elements, ensuring coherence and flow. If indeed the work has been checked against TEEL, this option is consistent with good essay practice.
Option b: 'b. NO - what is TEEL' states that TEEL has not been checked and questions what TEEL means. This is problematic in two ways. First, it signals a lack of adherence to the TEEL structure, which would imply the paragraphs may not conform to the intended format. Second, the parenthetical 'what is TEEL' reveals a misunderstanding or lack of familiarity with the TEEL acronym (Topic sentence, Evidence, Explanation, Link). The claim would be incorrect if TEEL has already been used as a guiding structure; it would also be incomplete or evasive if TEEL has not been previously defined in the assignment brief.
In evaluating these options, consider the typical expectations in TEEL-based writing tasks: you should have a defined structure, and ideally you can demonstrate it through concrete examples or a checklist. If a reviewer asks whether TEEL has been used, an affirmative answer (Option a) should be supported by specific references to paragraph openings, evidence cited, and linking sentences. Conversely, selecting Option b would be warranted only if TEEL had not been applied or defined in the guidance provided.
Overall, the first option presumes successful verification of TEEL adherence, while the second highlights a lack of TEEL awareness or application. The accuracy of either choice hinges on whether the TEEL structure was actually checked and understood in the submitted paragraphs. Accompanying evidence such as a rubric or annotated sample paragraphs would make the chosen option more robust.
