The images of your poster.

Excellent

The visual elements are both attractive and functional. They address the readers' interests and concerns, rather than simply attracting attention they explain the concept.
Good

The visual elements are attractive, but may not be used for any specific purpose. There are pictures but they don't necessarily help us understand.
Poor/Fair

The visual elements are absent or poorly done. Color, interesting images, and fun things to look at are missing.
Style
5 pts

Clarity of writing

Excellent

Writing is crisp, clear, and succinct. The writer uses strong active verbs, clear sentence structure, and lists, checklists, and other kinds of text where appropriate. The level of technicality is appropriate for a public audience.
Good

Writing is generally clear, but active verbs are sometimes missing. Paragraphs may be too dense, visually, or they may employ excessive nominalizations and other scientific jargon not appropriate for the audience.
Poor/Fair

It is hard to know what the writer is trying to express. Writing is convoluted. Misspelled words, incorrect grammar, and improper punctuation are evident. Or there is just too much.

Excellent

Every member of the group is able to answer questions and it is clear they all have a deep understanding of what they are presenting.
Good

Group is able to explain what they did and are able to answer most questions without assistance. Only one or two members appear to know what the poster is about.
Poor/Fair
