Understanding Neural Processes and Pathways in Sensory Perception - Rubric

Neural Pathways of Sensory Systems 21 points

Criteria Description

Shows the audition, vision, and olfaction pathways from the sensory organ to the

respective sensory cortex.

5. Target 21 points

Matrix expertly shows the audition, vision, and olfaction pathways from the sensory

organ to the respective sensory cortex, and section is comprehensive and insightful

with relevant evidence to support claims. Matrix demonstrates an exceptional

understanding of the topic.

4. Acceptable 17.85 points

Matrix clearly shows the audition, vision, and olfaction pathways from the sensory

organ to the respective sensory cortex, and section is strong with sound analysis

and some evidence to support claims. Matrix demonstrates an understanding that

extends beyond the surface of the topic.

3. Approaching 15.75 points

Matrix adequately shows the audition, vision, and olfaction pathways from the

sensory organ to the respective sensory cortex, but section is limited and lacks

some evidence to support claims. Matrix demonstrates a basic understanding of

the topic.

2. Insufficient 13.65 points

Matrix inadequately shows the audition, vision, and olfaction pathways from the

sensory organ to the respective sensory cortex, but section is weak and missing

evidence to support claims. Matrix demonstrates a poor understanding of the topic.

1. Unsatisfactory 0 points

Matrix omits or incompletely shows the audition, vision, and olfaction pathways

from the sensory organ to the respective sensory cortex. Matrix does not

demonstrate understanding of the topic.
