iRubric: Egg Drop Rubric

Students have described some of the physics-related principles covered in class that apply to the project, but fail to discuss how those principles have impacted their design.

Students have described some of the physics-related principles covered in class that apply to the project and minimally discuss how those principles have impacted their design.

Students have described most, if not all, of the physics-related principles covered in class that apply to the project and somewhat elaborate on how those principles impacted their design.

Students have described in detail all of the physics-related principles covered in class that apply to the project and fully elaborate on how those principles impacted their design.

Students have not followed directions to the assignment and have failed to adhere to most of the project's constraints.

Students have followed directions to the assignment somewhat and have adhered to some of the project's constraints with three to four exceptions.

Students have followed directions to the assignment for the most part and have adhered to the majority of the project's constraints with one to two exceptions.

Students have closely followed directions to the assignment and have adhered to all of the project's constraints.

Students have provided a basic analysis of their egg drop results, but fail to mention the limitations of their design. Future considerations and/or revisions are noticeably absent.

Students have provided an adequate analysis of their egg drop results and addressed some limitations of their design. Future considerations and/or revisions may be mentioned, but lack significant depth.

Students have provided a thoughtful analysis of their egg drop results and addressed most of the limitations of their design. Future considerations and/or revisions have been noted with much consideration.

Students have provided an in-depth analysis of their egg drop results and thoughtfully addressed any limitations of their design. Future considerations and/or revisions are fully elaborated on with “next steps” clearly provided.
