Past Incorperation
Novice
Student rushes through or does not include any evaluation of his/her past perspective on human nature, including, but not limited to, claiming that nothing has changed, but neglecting to show support for the statement.
Apprentice
Student does include information about Reflection Paper 1 and/or his/her previous view of human nature, but should explore in much greater detail. Student may or may not use a thinker from class, but if used it might be misunderstood or only tangential. Student might mention details from life, but does not relate them to human nature.
Proficient
Student references previous view as articulated in Reflection Paper 1, pointing to places that have changed, places that have remained the same, and places that have been nuanced. Student relates previous view to a thinker from class in a way that is obviously relevant and topically interesting.
Distinguished
Student logically, eloquently, and empathetically articulates his/her views of human nature at the beginning of the semester (and earlier, if relevant), and traces the changes either in content or articulation (or both) between that point and the present, including the things from class (and beyond) that prompted or coincided with any changes. Student includes details of what created this previous view, based partially on Reflection Paper 1.
Present Evaluation
Novice
Student rushes through or does not include his/her current view of human nature, including, but not limited to, claiming that nothing has changed, but neglecting to show support for the statement.
Apprentice
Student mentions current view of human nature, but should explore one or more aspects of it in greater depth and/or detail. Student does not mention or deal with ambiguities in his/her perspective.
Proficient
Student explains current view of human nature with some depth, including potential objections and explanations where appropriate. Student has a reasonable view of human nature, and makes accommodations for any ambiguity within his/her own perspective.
Distinguished
Student logically, eloquently, and empathetically articulates his/her views of human nature currently. Student traces the changes either in content or articulation (or both) between the past and present, including the things from class (and beyond) that prompted or coincided with any changes. Student has a rich and nuanced view of human nature, and embraces, explains, and explores any ambiguity within his/her own perspective.
Future Orientation
Novice
Student fails to include future orientation in the paper, or rushes through it.
Apprentice
Student mentions what his/her view of human nature indicates about how one ought to live, or his/her ambitions for the future, but the two are not explicitly or logically connected.
Proficient
Student theorizes concerning what his/her view of human nature would dictate about how one ought to live one’s life, including to what extent this is or is not reflected in the student’s own ambitions for the future. Connected are well-made and logical.
Distinguished
Student logically, eloquently, and empathetically explores what his/her view of human nature would dictate about how one ought to live one’s life, including details of to what extent this is or is not reflected in the student’s own ambitions for the future. Student makes specific connections that help further nuance both his/her view of human nature and his/her hopes for the rest of his/her life.

Fluidity/Engagement
Novice
Paper appears sloppy and/or unfinished. The paragraphs do not connect to one another. The student does not engage with the topics in a significantly meaningful manner.
Apprentice
The flow of the paper is somewhat disjointed, but attempts to tie everything together are made. Student mentions some difficulties around human nature and/or his/her own view of human nature, but should explore them more explicitly. Some ideas were presented logically, and perhaps a good faith effort was made to engage the topic. A philosopher from class was mentioned but not used.
Proficient
The student shows clear and mostly successful attempts to deal with the difficulties of human nature as a whole. Ideas were presented in a logical order and some connections were made between all of the topics. One or more philosophers from class were used in a real way.
Distinguished
Student logically, eloquently, and empathetically traces the various complications of human nature as they are relevant for his/her view of human nature and future ambitions in life. Student brings in sources from class and beyond when appropriate to support, complicate, and/or challenge his/her points.
