	Poor 4 pts	Fair 6 pts	Good 8 pts	Excellent 10 pts	Not completed 0 pts
Effectiveness Mechanical ARm Pick up a golf ball 30 centimeters in the air	Poor The arm was not able to move at all	Fair The arm could move, but was not able to pick up a ball	Good The arm could pick up the golf ball, but could not get it up 30 cm,	Excellent The arm could pick up a golf ball and pick it up 30 cm	Not completed Arm not completed
Technical Report Lab report according to template.	Poor The lab reprot was very poorly done and it was completed late	Fair It was completed on time, but was poorly done and was not thorough, or it did not show how arm was built, or did not have effective drawings.	Good The lab report was well done, but was either not neat or did not show where the mechanical advantage is in the arm.	Excellent The lab report was well done and it showed where the mechanical advantage is in the arm.	Not completed no presentation was made.
Group effectiveness How effectively did the group work together. This criterion will be conglomeration of the reports and direct observation.	Poor The group was observed falling to work together for the majority of the assigned time in class. Or their scores were low every day.	Fair The group worked for about half time.	Good The group stayed on task for the majority of the week, but it took urging from the leader and the teacher.	Excellent The group stayed on task for the majority of the assigned week with minimal urging from the leader	Not completed The group did not work together well at all or did not stay on task.
Information The group must know about ideal and actual mechanical advantage and efficiency.	Poor The group average was between 70 - 75	Fair The group average was between 75 - 85	Good The group average was between 85 - 95	Excellent The group average was between 95 - 100	Not completed The group average for the quiz over the information was less than 70
Extra Credit	Poor The ball was moved 4 cm	Fair The ball was moved 6 cm	Good The ball was moved 8 cm	Excellent The golf ball was moved 10 cm	Not completed The ball was not moved horizontally
