Overall project

Unsatisfactory

I had to do a project? Of what???
Poor

I did something. I didn't use the one month I was given, though, and it shows. Little time or thought went into this.
Developing

I created a project. It isn't my best, and I could have done a lot better. Some details, not much thought went into this, however.
Fair

I created a project and mostly used my time wisely. Project looks messy, but the details and information is almost complete.
Good

I spent my time wisely. I thought about how I was going to present the information, and did a good, thorough job.
Excellent

I really outdid myself, and went above and beyond. I added extra details, and did a great job on neatness and paid a great deal of attention to quality.
Visual Aid

Unsatisfactory

I had to make a visual aid, TOO????
Poor

My work isn't very colorful or neat. It may not contain all of the required information. It is obvious that I rushed through this.
Developing

I have some of the required information on the visual aid, and it has some color, but I needed to spend more time making it look nice.
Fair

I did put most of the required information on the visual aid. It may not be as creative, colorful, or neat as I could have made it.
Good

My visual aid is acceptable, and displays all of the required information. I was neat, and used color.
Excellent

My visual aid exceeded expectations. It is neat, colorful, and has extra details.
Writing

Unsatisfactory

Again, that would have required me to have done something-which I didn't!
Poor

My writing doesn't have complete sentences, or uses any details to describe my subject. I overuse vague and general terms.
Developing

I have some vague ideas, and I don't have any structured paragraphs. I do have complete sentences, but I need more work on improving the structure and content of my ideas.
Fair

I have my ideas structured into paragraphs, but don't have an introduction. I still have errors in spelling, grammar, and structure, resulting in some difficulty in readability.
Good

My writing is mostly structured with an introduction, main ideas in the body, and a conclusion. There are some flaws in spelling, grammar, or structure, but it doesn't interfere with readability.
Excellent

My writing is perfectly structured, with a smooth introduction to my ideas and a conclusion summarizing everything. Ideas flow from one paragraph/topic to the next. There are very few flaws in spelling or grammar.
Creativity/Originality

Unsatisfactory

Creativity? That would require a project, right?
Poor

Not much imagination or creativity happening on my project. I did not take my time and add many details. I wasn't very original.
Developing

Some, but very little creativity. I didn't really spend too much time on this, and it shows. Little, if any, originality.
Fair

Improving on creativity and some parts of the project are interesting. I spent some time on it, but I don't have any original ideas.
Good

Good creativity. I really thought about how to make my project interesting to others, and spent time on it. I had original ideas, and was able to express them well.
Excellent

Exceptional-I really put a lot of time and effort into making this really creative. Terrific originality!
Research/Information

Unsatisfactory

I had to research something???
Poor

I did very little research. My project does not have a bibliography, and it is obvious that I didn't do much to research my project/model. Plagiarism may be lurking here!
Developing

I did some research. I may have a bibliography, but it is not in the correct format, or uses too few sources. I may not have worded things in my own words!
Fair

I did some research, and I have a bibliography that shows my sources I used. I should have taken the time to look for more sources and information, but I used my own words.
Good

I researched my topic, and my bibliography shows the numerous resources used. I put the information in my own words, and really demonstrated my knowledge. I covered all of the required elements.
Excellent

Exceptional number of sources cited on bibliography. Bibliography format is correct, as well. Much information-more than required, is given.
Presentation

Unsatisfactory

I forgot to present my project.
Poor

My presentation shows very little preparation or thought put into it. My ideas didn't really make sense, and my audience didn't learn anything from it.
Developing

My presentation was disorganized and confusing, but the main ideas were sometimes described well.
Fair

My presentation was informative, and my audience learned something about my topic. Could have used more time to prepare, because I was sometimes off topic and disorganized.
Good

My presentation was informative, and my audience learned something about my topic. I was focused, and my audience could understand me well.
Excellent

My presentation was outstanding, preparation was obviously thorough. My audience learned a lot about my topic, and they were mostly interested in what I had to say.
