ASSIGNMENT #2 WRITING NOTES IN EVERNOTE GEEN 2313

A rubric is a grading tool that describes the criteria, or "what counts," for the assignment. It also describes each of the criteria according to gradations of quality, with descriptions of strong, middling, and problematic student work. The criteria are listed in the column on the left. The numbers in the top row indicate quality, with six (6) being the best. The number 0 is something everyone wants to avoid. You may use the rubric as a checklist to determine if the writing meets the criteria of the assignment before you hand in a paper, or as you revise your work.
