The ePortfolio Rubric

Here's the rubric I'll use for evaluating what you do. It's not a traditional rubric, since we have no points. But you can see a place I'll check off contract breaks if you earn them. A full A-rating requires A marks in all four categories.

Here's how this works, which should be no surprise if you've been around all term. The ePortfolio largely determines your grade for the course. You can see that it can doom you (if you earn the Unacceptable rating, there's no way to pass). But you can earn up to four contract breaks, too—that's what you see in the second column.

An A rating requires checks in all four categories. If you come up very slightly short with one of the categories, then I tend to look at how well you do with the last project and final—there's a chance to get into that A range, in other words.

If you know you've earned contract breaks already, then be especially cautious. Some of you may need to withdraw already. If you already have four breaks, then it's likely you're not in the best place with any of the projects, so the chance you'll submit a ePortfolio that doesn't earn any contract breaks is low. Also, please note that I haven't logged contract breaks for At-Home Activities yet, since we have more to do. If your percentage is way below 75%, you will probably have a contract break there!
