Robotic Engineering - Sumo Robotic Engineering This rubric is designed to assess the design of the individual's SUMO robot including programming and competition. Rubric Code: Q97357 By BacchusMarsh Ready to use Public Rubric Subject: Engineering Type: Project Grade Levels: 9-12

Robot Design Rubric
	Attempted Shows none to almost no effort. 1 pts	Acceptable Shows minimal effort w/disregard to assignment instructions. 2 pts	Admirable Shows significant effort, but lacks some elements of the assignment. 3 pts	Amazing Shows outstanding effort meeting most if not all elements of design criteria 4 pts
Basic Sumo bot	Attempted Difficulty with robot assembly of base bot Robot assembly done with more than 10 errors or is not built. Attachments (Ultrasonic and light sensors) weak and fall apart often; difficulty completing task Base design not followed easily	Acceptable Robot assembly done with 5 to 10 errors. Robot base structure has some stability. Attachments difficult to apply; and /or not modular; not precise. Base weak, falls apart when handled or run. Base design followed will some difficulty	Admirable Slow robot assembly, with 5 or less errors Robot base stable, but not robust. Attachments function most of the time; Base design easily followed with some mistakes made	Amazing Robot assembles easily, with no errors. Robot base stable and robust. Attachments modular, function as expected and easily added/removed from robot. Attachments perform tasks extremely well and are repeatable. Base design easily followed with no build issues
Own SUMO bot design	Attempted Difficulty with robot assembly of base bot Robot assembly done with more than 10 errors or is not built. Attachments (Ultrasonic and light sensors) weak and fall apart often; difficulty completing task Robot copied from other designs and not modified by individual	Acceptable Robot assembly done with 5 to 10 errors. Robot base structure has some stability. Attachments difficult to apply; and /or not modular; not precise or not repeatable. Base weak, falls apart when handled or run. Robot show signs of individual's design ideas.	Admirable Slow robot assembly, with 5 or less errors Robot base stable, but not robust. Attachments modular; function most of the time; and/or take some time to assemble; somewhat precise and /or repeatable. Robot designed by individual	Amazing Robot assembles easily, with no errors. Robot base stable and robust. Attachments modular, function as expected and easily added/removed from robot. Robot displays wide range of capabilities. Attachments perform tasks extremely well and are repeatable. Robot designed by individual design is unique and creative.
Operation	Attempted Difficulty competing in 3 rounds without fixes between each round Too fast for accuracy, or too slow to accomplish mission. Turns inaccurate or inconsistent. Moves between starting line and boundary inconsistently. No effort to know position on SUMO mat. Does not see white line or opponent. Robot did not perform at all.	Acceptable Completes 3 rounds with some breaks in between to repair minor damage Turns sometimes accurate. Sometimes moves starting lines and boundary consistently. Little or no effort to know position on SUMO mat. Does see the white line or the opponent but not consistently Your robot did something, but did not perform well in fights that it was supposed to.	Admirable Completes 3 rounds without breaks most of the time. Not too fast for accuracy or too slow to accomplish fight Turns reasonably accurate and consistent. Allows for variables such as light changes or movement of opponent Sees the white boundary and the opposition most times and reacts as expected Your robot won most bouts	Amazing Completes 3 rounds without breaks Adjusts speed and position sensing for optimum speed and accuracy. Turns accurately and consistently. Allows for variables (battery wear, moving opponents, light changes). Consistenly sees the white boundary and opposition and reacts as expected Your robot was successful, it performed successfully in all bouts
Programming	Attempted Programs disorganized Programs inefficient Results unpredictable Sensors inadequately used. Programs do not accomplish expected tasks. Variables, loops, subroutines and conditions defined but unused. Student can't describe what run will do.	Acceptable Programs somewhat organized Programs efficient at completing some tasks. Results somewhat unpredictable Programs do some of what is expected Variables, loops, subroutines and conditions, if used, not understood.	Admirable Programs organized. Programs efficient at completing most tasks. Programs do what they're expected to do. Sensors used effectively, if used. Variables, loops, subroutines and conditions, if used, are needed. Student can describe most of program and its effects.	Amazing Programs logically organized. Programs very efficient. Programs always work, even for complex tasks. Sensors, if used, guarantee certain actions in every trial. Programs work in competition as in practice. Variables, loops, subroutines and conditions, if used, are effective. Students can describe how to improve program as required
Student Contribution	Attempted Little knowledge of why some parts are located as they are on the robot. Little or no understanding of what pieces did. Building/programming appears primarily done by instructor. Seldom cooperated with other. Hardly did any work on the robot themselves. Rarely offered useful ideas.	Acceptable Knowledge of robot structure and programming shows minimal understanding of underlying design, science, and technology. Building and programming seems primarily directed by instructor. Sometimes cooperated with the others Could have done more. Sometimes offered useful ideas.	Admirable Knowledge of robot structure and programming shows moderate understanding of underlying design, science, and technology. Building/programming mostly directed by individual/team members, with help from instructor. Cooperative with the others Did their part of the work. Usually offered useful ideas.	Amazing Knowledge of robot structure and programming shows thorough understanding of underlying design, science, and technology. Building/programming was done by individual Always willing to help and do more. Did their share and helped others to complete. Routinely offered useful ideas.
Strategy, Process, Problem-Solving	Attempted Uses standard design. No design process (from initial concept through build, test, refinement) communicated. Strategy based only on ease of task - did not maximize time, combine tasks or consider points.	Acceptable Some forethought in initial design. Refinement of robot and programs not communicated. Strategy often based on ease of task -few risks taken. Some consideration of time, sensor combinations or maximizing points.	Admirable Basic understanding of design process, evidence of conceptual planning, building, testing, refining of robot, manipulators, programs. Effective strategic planning, combining fight tasks, program ideas and build designs	Amazing Communicates complete design process, from initial concept through build, test, and refinement. Excellent/innovative strategy, combining fight tasks, plotting attacks, maximizing points.
Troubleshooting	Attempted None	Acceptable Recognizes, attempts with little or no success.	Admirable Can perform troubleshooting most of the time. Moderate success getting robot to achieve attempted objectives.	Amazing Always performs troubleshooting without being asked. Works on robotic design, programming and features until objectives are achieved.
Leadership	Attempted None; detracts from unity and excellence.	Acceptable Very little. Is cooperative and offers some ideas in group settings.	Admirable Can be a good leader. Is cooperative and occasionally helps others in group setting.	Amazing Excellent leader. Clearly leads team and in group settings with all aspects of robot construction, programming and achievement of objectives. Neutralizes disagreements and compromises when appropriate.
Resources	Attempted Does not use resources even though available	Acceptable Usually reads and uses general and basic resources available.	Admirable Reads and uses general resources. Will seek outside resources and information when prompted or provided.	Amazing Almost always seeks outside resources. Books, internet sites/searches, other software are consulted frequently.
Redesign	Attempted Cannot identify issues Does not attempt redesign to improve result	Acceptable Identifies some issues with performance Attempts limited redesign which does not improve performance	Admirable Identifies issues with performance Attempts redesign which improves performance to a small degree	Amazing Identifies multiple issues with redesign Redesigns robot improving performance in specific areas
