This document contains a rubric for grading student presentations on a cell organelle model. It evaluates students on 6 criteria: design problems, scale, structure vs function, learning from oral presentation, learning from notes, and bibliography. For each criteria, it provides descriptors to define scoring from 3 points (meets criteria well) to 0 points (does not meet criteria). The total score is calculated and corresponds to a letter grade, with 16-15 being an A and 0-5 being an F. Bonus points may be awarded for exceptional work meeting the criteria.

3 2 1 0 Score DESIGN PROBLEMS The problems of designing the model are well described and good solutions were chosen. The problems of designing the model are described but the solutions are not adequate. The problems of designing the model are not described and the solutions are not adequate. THE SCALE The scale of the model and its related structures is well defined and is accurate. The scale of the model and its related structures is defined but is not accurate. The scale of the model and its related structures has not been considered. STRUCTURE v FUNCTION A very accurate description of the function(s) of the organelle is given and this is then related clearly to its structure. The function(s) of the organelle are described and related to the structure. Either the function(s) of the organelle are not properly described or the structure of the organelle is incorrectly described. There is not attempt to relate the function(s) of the organelle to its structure. LEARNING FROM THE ORAL PRESENTATION The oral presentation and the model are a very effective and accurate way in which to learn about the organelle The oral presentation and the model are a good way in which to learn about the organelle. The oral presentation nd the model show several mistakes or omissions and thus provide an incorrect learning experience. The oral presentation and the model have no learning value. LEARNING FROM THE NOTES The accompanying notes created for the presentation are a very effective and accurate way in which to learn about the organelle The accompanying notes are a good way in which to learn about the organelle. The accompanying notes contain several mistakes or omissions and thus provide an incorrect learning experience. The notes provided have no learning value, or no notes are provided. BIBLIOGRAPHY There is a proper and useful bibliography, citing more than two sources of information. The bibliography contains only one or two references, or is not useful. There is no bibliography. SCORE GRADE NOTE 1 TOTAL SCORE 16 7 The model will not be 15 6 graded if a 0 is scored in 14, 13 5 any of the 6 criteria GRADE 12, 11, 10 4 9, 8 3 NOTE 2 7, 6 2 Bonus points may be awarded 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 1 for exceptional work in any of the criteria.
