Project Rubric (100 points):

The content grade will be worth 50% of the project grade. The organization grade will be

worth 25% of the project grade. The style grade will be worth 25% of the project grade.

Each of the three categories will be awarded a percentage grade, and the three percentage

grades will be combined according to the weights above. The final percentage indicates

what percent of the total of 145 points is to be awarded.

Percent

Awarded

Content (50%) Organization (25%) Style (25%)

90%-100% Includes required

slides or pages and

required math concept

applied to profession.

Slides or pages are

organized logically and

are easy to follow.

Language is

appropriate. Use of

standard American

English and APA style

are generally correct

with no more than three

minor errors.

80%-89% Includes required

slides or pages and
required math concept

applied to profession,

but some ideas may

stray off topic.

Slides or pages are

generally organized

logically and are easy to

follow with one or two

minor errors.

Language is generally

appropriate. Use of
standard American
English and APA style
are generally correct

with more than three

minor errors but no

distracting errors.

70%-79% Includes the basic

requirements for slides

or pages and math

concept, but

application may be

faulty or unclear.

Slides or pages show

some

organization, but errors

exist that distract the

reader.

Some elements of good

style are followed, but

distracting errors

exist.

60%-69% Basic requirements for

the assignment are

barely met. Errors in

content, concept, and

application may occur.

Slides or pages are

insufficiently organized.

Serious errors in style

exist.

0%-59% Few or none of the

requirements of the

assignment are met.

Serious problems with

organization that make

the project impossible

or nearly impossible to

follow.

Errors in style are so

excessive or serious that

ideas are difficult to

follow. Project may be

plagiarized.

Example of How the Final Project Rubric Will Be Used:

Suppose a student earns 85% on content, 90% on organization, and 75% on style. Then the

student’s final project grade is calculated as follows: 0.50*85% + 0.25*90% + 0.25*75% =

83.75%. The student then earns 0.8375*100 = 84 points.
