TOTAL SCORE 95%
How to use this rubric: Simply read each criteria (presented in each row), and determine to which category your Skill Builder qualifies (i.e. excellent, good, acceptable, weak, or poor). For example, you may feel your Skill Builder fits the "ASSIGNMENT WORD COUNT" description for the "Good" category ("Good" is 80-89% score) because your SKill Builder has 990 words (excluding references, diagrams, tables). Then make a judgement -- based on your review of your Skill Buidler -- and give your Skill Builder a score between 80% and 89% (in this example, your Skill Builder met the "Good" requirments for "Assignment Word Count"). Place that score in the column "J" (cell J3). Do this for all six criteria. Your Skill Builder score (as a percentage) will be totalled for you. This is only an estimate of your grade; however, it provides you a means of understanding how the instructor will grade your Skill Builder. The calculated total on the rubic is determined as the PRODUCT of the scores YOU input in the J3-J8 cells (that means it multiplies these numbers together - and also means that a single ZERO score will result in a ZERO total).

Grade

Use this worksheet to calculate your current/ongoing grade in the course (based on submitted assignments)
---Simply insert the grades for the assignments you have submitted
You may also use this worksheet to predict your grade for the course (a "what-if" scenario tool)
---Simply insert the grades you believe you will earn in upcoming assignments
Note: once you enter a "zero" the algorithm assumes you earned a "zero" on the assignment, so if you wish to remove an entry, delete it rather than entering a "zero"
Note: you may only enter into the GREEN cells (everything else is locked)
