Effective Learning
The “Effective-Learning” Assignment Grading Rubric
Each paper starts off with a 95.
If it is truly exceptional, you can go higher than 95 – the A+’s. Your call on how much higher –but no 100’s – no such project is ever “perfect.”
Deductions
Procedural:
· First two spelling/grammatical errors for free, then 2 points per error afterwards.
· Those with more or fewer words will be penalized (1 point (out of 100) for every 20 words over or under). But be careful – this refers to text – references, title pages, abstracts, don’t count. So only apply this if the paper is really short or really long.
· Subjective judgment of attractiveness – up to 5 points for sloppy presentation.
· Clarity of discussion – up to 5 point deduction for lack of clarity.
· No reference section – mandatory 5 point deduction.
· If topic is not from pre-approved list –it will be scored as a 50 (Unless a student has previous approval from the professor).
Content:
Lacking any of these is a 20-point deduction:
· A discussion of the hypotheses, methods, results, or discussion of the paper in question. (20 points off for each section missing)
· A discussion of how the paper could relate to real-world learning
Lacking any of these is a 10-point deduction:
· A thesis statement (somewhere in first paragraph) stating what the issue of the journal article is and what the writer’s position is, and if the student makes a different conclusion than the author of the paper.
· conclusion that re-states the thesis.
Any paper over 30% on Turnitin will be referred for possible disciplinary action.
