Final Product Rubric

The following rubric breaks down how the student's final product will be graded.

Category

Grammar

Documentation

10%*

Format

10%

Content

75%

Total

100%

 

Grammar- Basic grammar will be graded such as, spelling, punctuation, and sentence structure.

Documentation- Student will be responsible to document parenthetically every quote and paraphrase used in proper MLA format, and each source must also be documented in the bibliography.

            *The 10% hold the students accountable ONLY for MLA format mistakes. In the event of plagiarism the Final Product Grade will result in an AUTOMATIC 0.    

Format- The format grade is basically the presentation of the turned in project.  A full 10% would need the appropriate order: Title page, Final Paper, Bibliography, Rough Draft, and Outline.  The paper needs to be 10 pages, Times New Roman 12pt font, with one inch margins, in BLACK FONT ONLY!  The project should also be stapled, in a folder, bound, or paper clipped.   

Content- This is the largest portion of the grade.  The student will need to create a smooth flowing and coherent paper.  The paper will also need an identifiable introduction, thesis, body, and conclusion.  Inaccurate information and failure to support thesis will also result in point deduction.
