Appeal will be graded based on the organization of your information, argument, and detail. It does not mean
you have to be a perfect presenter, but your work cant be sloppy when presenting to the Shogun.
When work is judged to be insufficient, the teacher makes decisions about appropriate intervention to help the student improve.
