Description: Total Possible Score: 25.00
Distinguished – Thoroughly examines a system problem that is at a macro level including a problem-solving approach that is scientific and rational and a statement of the problem that develops into an appropriate, specific research question and hypothesis.
Proficient – Examines a system problem that is at a macro level including a problem-solving approach that is mostly scientific and rational and a statement of the problem that develops into an appropriate research question and hypothesis. Minor details are missing.
Basic – Minimally examines a system problem that is at a macro level including a problem-solving approach that is somewhat scientific and rational and a statement of the problem that develops into a limited research question and hypothesis. Relevant details are missing.
Below Expectations – Attempts to examine a system problem that is at a macro level including a problem-solving approach that is scientific and rational and a statement of the problem that develops into an appropriate research question and hypothesis; however, significant details are missing.
Non-Performance – The examination of a system problem that is at a macro level including a problem-solving approach that is mostly scientific and rational and a statement of the problem that develops into an appropriate research question and hypothesis is either nonexistent or lacks the components described in the assignment instructions.
Distinguished - Thorough explanation of the problem and proposed problem solving method are fully supported through evidence-based research results.
Proficient - An explanation of the problem and proposed problem solving method are supported through some evidence-based research results. Minor details are missing.
Basic - A general explanation of the problem and proposed problem solving method are presented and somewhat supported with evidence-based research results. Relevant details are missing.
Below Expectations - The explanation of the problem and proposed problem solving method are not supported with evidence- based research results. Significant details are missing.
Non-Performance - The literature review is either nonexistent or lacks the components described in the assignment instructions.
Distinguished – Develops a thorough plan for conducting the research project including all the following: type of research design, recruitment of participants, data collection (e.g., what instruments would be used), and data analysis (what precise statistical tests would be used to test what variables).
Proficient - Develops a plan for conducting the research project including most of the following: type of research design, recruitment of participants, data collection (e.g., what instruments would be used), and data analysis (what precise statistical tests would be used to test what variables). The methodology is slightly underdeveloped.
Basic - Develops a limited plan for conducting the research project including some of the following: type of research design, recruitment of participants, data collection (e.g., what instruments would be used), and data analysis (what precise statistical tests would be used to test what variables). The methodology is underdeveloped.
Below Expectations - Attempts to develop a plan for conducting the research project including some of the following: type of research design, recruitment of participants, data collection (e.g., what instruments would be used), and data analysis (what precise statistical tests would be used to test what variables); however, the methodology is significantly underdeveloped.
Non-Performance - The methodology is either nonexistent or lacks the components described in the assignment instructions.
Distinguished -Adapts and employs, independently, skills, abilities, theories, or methodologies gained in one situation to new situations. Solving difficult problems or exploring complex issues in original ways.
Proficient - Utilizes skills, abilities, theories, or methodologies gained in one situation to new situations, contributing to an understanding of problems or issues.
Basic - Attempts to utilize, in a basic way, skills, abilities, theories, or methodologies gained in one situation, in a new situation.
Below Expectations - Attempts to utilize, in a basic way, skills, abilities, theories, or methodologies gained in one situation in a new situation. Such attempts may be ineffective.

Non-Performance - The assignment is either nonexistent or lacks the components described in the instructions.
Distinguished - Conclusions and related outcomes are logical and clearly reflect student’s informed evaluation and ability to place evidence and perspectives discussed in priority order.
Proficient -Conclusions and related outcomes are logical and reflect student’s informed evaluation and ability to place evidence and perspectives discussed in priority order.
Basic - Conclusions and related outcomes are identified and minimally reflect student’s informed evaluation and ability to place evidence and perspectives discussed in priority order.
Below Expectations - Conclusions and related outcomes are not logical or reflective of student’s informed evaluation and ability to place evidence and perspectives discussed in priority order.
Non-Performance - The assignment is either nonexistent or lacks the components described in the instructions.
Distinguished - Uses appropriate, pertinent, and persuasive content to discover and develop sophisticated ideas within the context of the discipline, shaping the work.
Proficient - Uses appropriate and pertinent content to discover ideas within the context of the discipline, shaping the work.
Basic - Uses appropriate and pertinent content, but does not apply it toward discovering or developing ideas. Overall, content assists in shaping the written work.
