CONNECTING LOG SCORING GUIDELINES

The logs will be scored holistically, based on both the quality of thought and the quality of the writing.

SCORE GUIDELINES

3 * looks at the subject matter on multiple levels: literally, concretely, using

illustrations from the real world, as well as theoretically, conceptually,

deriving its larger significance.

* uses examples from the activity and readings to support the analysis.

* shows sophistication of written expression.

2 * makes some connections between the real world and larger concepts, but does

not show the same breadth or complexity of thought.

* may use examples from the activity and readings, but does so superficially, or

unconvincingly.

* is adequately written, but may show inconsistent control over the elements of

composition.

1 * attempts to discuss the activity and readings, but does so inaccurately or

inadequately.

* uses few, if any, examples.

* writing may reveal consistent weaknesses in grammar or the basic elements

of composition.

0 * does not attempt to do the assignment in any meaningful way.
