Criteria* Grade and feedback Description of Management Challenge (40%)

• Clearly describes a management challenge set in a real life context

• Expresses whether the challenge is from your own experience OR secondary sources

o If using secondary sources, the sources used are appropriate and articulate a challenge at a specific organization

o If using own experience, your position in the context of the issue is explained

Application of course model or theory (50%) • Selects and accurately explains a relevant model or theory

from textbook • Clearly explains why the chosen model/theory is relevant to

the challenge described above • Evidence of critical thinking skills related to assessing “fit”

between model/theory and specifics of challenge identified • Evidence of critical thinking skills related to arguments for

overlap or gaps between theory and practice (i.e. real-life situation described)

Organization and writing (10%) • Paper is clearly written, well organized and flows well • No grammar and spelling errors • Stays within length requirement (i.e. <500 words) • APA format for references • Title page included

Total (out of 100%) * “Organization and Writing” is an independent grading criterion but is relevant to the paper’s ability to convey ideas in each area described in this rubric. Therefore, poor writing, errors, typos and formatting issues could result in lost grades in multiple areas of the rubric (e.g., “Organization and Writing” and “Description of Management Challenge”).
