	excellent 6 pts	Strong 5 pts	Good 4 pts	moderate 3 pts	weak 2 pts	poor 1 pts
a General Use of Design Elements to Investigate the Principles of Two-Dimensional Design	excellent In most works there is a highly successful use of the elements of design applied to an investigation of 2-D design principles.	Strong There is generally successful use of the elements of design applied to an investigation of 2-D design principles	Good There is successful use of the elements of design, but the investigation of 2-D design principles is limited in scope.	moderate There is some successful use of the elements of design, but the investigation of their application to 2-D design principles is emerging and narrow in scope.	weak Some awareness of the elements of design is demonstrated, but there appears to be little understanding or investigation of their application to 2-D design principles.	poor Very little awareness of the elements of design is demonstrated, and there appears to be minimal understanding or investigation of their application to 2-D design principles.
b Decision Making and Intention in the Compositional Use of the Elements and Principles of Design	excellent The work exhibits well-informed decision making and intention	Strong The work shows evidence of thoughtful decision making and intention.	Good Some clear decision making and intention are evident	moderate Decision making and intention are questionable.	weak Intention is not clear.	poor The work appears to be unconsidered and to lack discernible intention.
c Originality, Imagination, and Invention	excellent The composition of the works displays an original, imaginative, and inventive articulation of the elements and principles of design	Strong The work generally demonstrates imaginative ideas and effective manipulation of the elements and principles of design.	Good The composition of the works demonstrates some imaginative ideas and purposeful manipulation of the elements and principles of design.	moderate Some imaginative ideas about the use of the elements and principles of design appear to be emerging.	weak The work relies heavily on unoriginal ideas and lacks invention or imaginative use of the elements and principles of design.	poor The work lacks originality or imagination
d Experimentation and Risk Taking	excellent The work may show successful engagement with experimentation, risk taking, or both.	Strong The work may show successful engagement with experimentation and/or risk-taking in some pieces.	Good The work may show engagement with experimentation and/or risk-taking, but with uneven success.	moderate The work may show attempts at experimentation and/or risk-taking, but with limited success.	weak The work shows little attempt at experimentation or risk taking, or the experimentation has little success.	poor The work shows negligible experimentation or risk taking, or the experimentation is unsuccessful.
e Confident, Evocative Work and Engagement of the Viewer	excellent The work as a whole is confident and evocative; it engages the viewer with visual qualities (for example, expressive verve or nuanced subtlety).	Strong Most works exhibit expressive and evocative qualities that engage the viewer and suggest confidence.	Good Some of the work has evocative qualities that engage the viewer, though confidence is not obvious; conversely the work may display confidence but not be engaging	moderate There may be one or two evocative, engaging works; confidence is questionable.	weak There is little about the work that is engaging; the work lacks confidence	poor The work does not engage the viewer; no confidence is evident
f Technical Competence and Skill with Materials and Media	excellent The technical competence of the work is generally excellent; materials and media are used effectively to express ideas	Strong The technical competence of the work is strong; materials and media are used well to express ideas.	Good The work demonstrates good technical competence and use of materials and media; technical aspects and articulation of ideas do not always work together	moderate The work is uneven, but overall it demonstrates emerging technical competence and use of materials and media	weak The work is generally awkward; it demonstrates marginal technical competence and clumsy use of materials and media.	poor The work is generally inept; use of materials is naïve and is lacking skill or technical competence.
g Appropriation and the Student “Voice”	excellent Any apparent appropriation of published or photographic sources or the work of other artists clearly provides a visual reference that is transformed in the service of a larger, personal vision in which the student’s “voice” is prominent.	Strong Any apparent appropriation of published or photographic sources or the work of other artists shows a strong sense of the student’s “voice” and individual transformation of the images.	Good With the apparent appropriation of published or photographic sources or the work of other artists, the student’s “voice” is discernible; the images have been manipulated to express the student’s individual ideas.	moderate If published or photographic sources or the work of other artists are appropriated, the work appears to be nearly direct reproductions; even if the work is skillfully rendered, the student’s “voice” and the individual transformation of the images are minimal.	weak The works appear to be direct copies of published or photographic sources or the work of other artists; even if they are of average rendering skill, there is little discernible student “voice” or individual transformation.	poor The works are obviously direct, poorly rendered copies of published or photographic sources or the work of other artists; there is no discernible student “voice” or individual transformation.
h Overall Accomplishment and Quality	excellent There may be varying levels of accomplishment among the five works, but overall the work reaches a level of excellent quality.	Strong There may be varying levels of accomplishment among the five works, but overall the work demonstrates strong quality.	Good There may be uneven levels of accomplishment among the five works, but overall the work demonstrates good quality.	moderate There may be an emerging level of accomplishment among the five works, and overall the work demonstrates moderate quality.	weak There is little evidence of accomplishment demonstrated in the five works, and overall the work demonstrates weak quality	poor Overall the five works lack accomplishment and are of poor quality.
