	Exemplary A (N/A)	Proficient B (N/A)	Developing C (N/A)	Inadequate D (N/A)	Failing (N/A)
Knowledge 2 pts Focus on what you learned at each location/activity you document. What questions were raised in your mind and how did you seek to answer them? And how does your attitude toward earlier entries develop/change over time?	Exemplary A Student has a deep understanding of the integrative nature of DSC 150, and demonstrates her understanding with well-selected photos clearly linked to blog posts. Student-generated questions lead to self-initiated research.	Proficient B Student has a good understanding of the integrative nature of DSC 150, and demonstrates her understanding with well-selected photos clearly linked to blog posts.	Developing C Student has a fairly good understanding of the integrative nature of DSC 150; most blog entries are well-connected to photos.	Inadequate D Little correlation between photos and blogs; little or no development of sophistication in level of discussion;little questioning to show insight into the process of this assignment.	Failing The work has not been completed, or contains plagiarized material.
Skills 2 pts This evaluates your writing skills, as well as your ability to make this journal a polished, coherent whole.	Exemplary A Student demonstrates growing control of voice and diction; very few if any grammatical or spelling errors. As a whole, the photo journal represents a polished piece of work.	Proficient B Student demonstrates growing control of voice and diction; some errors in grammar and spelling.	Developing C Student is still grappling with developing an individual voice; numerous errors in grammar and spelling.	Inadequate D Student has not developed a consistent individual voice. There are numerous grammar and spelling errors. The overall project is not a coherent whole.	Failing The work has not been completed, or contains plagiarized material.
Organization 2 pts While chronology will probably determine the layout of your photo journal, it is your task here to "organize" your ability to integrate the disciplinary variety of DSC 150.	Exemplary A Presentation follows a logical sequence and makes clear the student's deepening understanding of the the Hudson River as a focus of integrative studies.	Proficient B Presentation follows a logical sequence; there is a sense of developing insight into the relationships between place/activity and the topics being studied.	Developing C Presentation not organized clearly; issues are discussed with a multidisciplinary rather than an integrative approach.	Inadequate D Presentation poorly organized. Student demonstrates little ability to make connections across areas of study.	Failing The work has not been completed, or contains plagiarized material.
Photos 2 pts Choose well from the hundreds of photos you've taken!	Exemplary A Photos provide considerable insight into the subject of the blog post; they go beyond a simple recording of place.	Proficient B Photos support and add information to the blog post.	Developing C Photos do not consistently relate to their physical context; photos are not clearly relevant to the blog post.	Inadequate D Includes fewer than 30 photos.	Failing The work has not been completed, or contains plagiarized material.
