Cell Membrane

Poor

Student had a label that referenced the cell membrane, but an actual cell membrane was not depicted in the model.
Fair

The cell membrane was not a creatively made structure but is present or was not labeled correctly.
Good

Student depicted the cell membrane but did not give a detailed view of the phospholipid bilayer and membrane proteins.
Excellent

Student showed the phospholipid bilayer of the cell membrane but failed to include the membrane proteins.
Outstanding

Student depicted the cell membrane as a fluid mosaic model by showing the phospholipids and embedded proteins.
Nucleus

Poor

Student had a label that referenced the nucleus, but the actual organelle was not represented or it was unclear which organelle was the nucleus.
Fair

The nucleus has no detail, but is depicted.
Good

Two of the following are missing: nucleolus, chromatin, nuclear envelope, or nuclear pores.
Excellent

One of the following is missing: nucleolus, chromatin, nuclear envelope, or nuclear pores.
Outstanding

The cell nucleus is the most prominent feature of the cell and includes a nucleolus, chromatin, nuclear envelope, and nuclear pores.
Cytoplasm

Poor

The student clearly did not know where the cytoplasm is located.
Fair

The cytoplasm was present but not labeled
Good

The cytoplasm is referenced with a label but it was not clear which structure was the cytoplasm.
Excellent

The cytoplasm is clearly depicted, but the cytosol or cytoskeleton are not represented.
Outstanding

The cytoplasm is clearly depicted and shows the cytosol and cytoskeleton.
Other Organelles

Poor

Most organelles were left out of the model or have size/appearance issues.
Fair

4-6 organelles were left out of the model or have size/appearance issues.
Good

1-3 organelles were left out of the model or have size/appearance issues.
Excellent

All organelles are represented and labeled, but there are issues with either the appearance or size.
Outstanding

The following organelles are all present, clearly labeled, and represented with the correct relative shape, appearance, and size scale: Mitochondria, Golgi Apparatus, Smooth ER, Rough ER, Ribosomes, Lysosomes, Peroxisomes, Cilia or Flagellum
Creativity & Neatness

Poor

This cell model shows little effort, or may look like a last minute effort. Labels were not clearly depicted on the model and the model is messy.
Fair

This cell model shows less than average work effort and is similar to most others turned in. The model is somewhat messy, runny, or has a lot of structural damage. Labels may be present but are not clear.
Good

This cell model shows average work effort and looks similar to most others turned in. The cell model has some structural or other neatness problems. Labels are written on the model instead of being flags.
Excellent

This cell model shows genuine hard work on the part of its maker, but doesn't stand out as being different than the norm. The cell model is minimally damaged. or the labels are written on the model instead of being flags.
Outstanding

This cell model shows genuine hard work on the part of its maker. It stands out as being a different type of idea than the norm. The cell model looks neat and clean, the parts are clearly labeled with flags.
