Illustrations, video, graphics, images –all representations must be done with great creativity, detail and imagination. Not being neat, is not an option. If you want an A your product must go above and beyond!!!!! Clean, 100% readable, attractive, precise, orderly, and organized!!!!! -in cases of a video performance – of course it wouldn’t be readable this would refer more to understandable. Points earned for a grade A: 54-60 Actual points earned will be subjective – up to grader 2nd Quarter Project Due: 12/11/15 Creating a rubric for each option is almost impossible so here are some basic guidelines that MUST be followed/met for each grade ---*** If must an B grade is desired: It must be evident you have a good grasp of the concept!

No misinformation can be included but basic points/big ideas are missing. Illustrations, video, graphics, images –all representations must be done with creativity and imagination. Not being neat, is STILL not an option. But if you don’t mind earning a C your product can look like an average –I put this together in 1 day construct. It still must be clean, readable, orderly, and somewhat organized. -in cases of a video performance – of course it wouldn’t be readable this would refer more to understandable. Points earned for a grade C: 42 - 47 Actual points earned will be subjective – up to grader 2nd Quarter Project Due: 12/11/15 Creating a rubric for each option is almost impossible so here are some basic guidelines that MUST be followed/met for each grade ---*** If an D grade is desired: It must be evident that you have a somewhat of a grasp of the concept. The project must SHOW/EXPRESS whatever is the creators understanding of the concept, including vocabulary, principles, ideas, methods, and products. Major points and ideas included in concept are missing and (unfortunately) misinformation will be included –it will be pointed out. Illustrations, video, graphics, images –must be included but significant effort will not be evident. Not being neat, is never an option, but we will see sloppy here. If you want to earn a D and don’t care about your semester grade then start your project on Saturday December 11th, just throw something together. Rips, stains, pencil markings, crooked work that is semi-readable, not attractive or orderly. Points earned for a grade D: 36 - 41 Actual points earned will be subjective – up to grader 2nd Quarter Project Due: 12/11/15 Creating a rubric for each option is almost impossible so here are some basic guidelines that MUST be followed/met for each grade ---*** If an F grade is desired: Don’t turn in a project Points earned for a grade F = 0 There are no points to be subjective about.
