Define Problem
50
Using 3 or more sources, the student demonstrates the ability to construct a clear and insightful problem statement with evidence of all relevant contextual factors.
40
Using 3 or more sources, demonstrates the ability to construct a problem statement with evidence of most relevant contextual factors, and problem statement is adequately detailed.
30
Using 2 or more sources, begins to demonstrate the ability to construct a problem statement with evidence of most relevant contextual factors, but problem statement is superficial.
20
Using 1 or more sources, Demonstrates a limited ability in identifying a problem statement or related contextual factors.
10
Using 1 source, Demonstrates no ability to identifying a problem statement or related contextual factors.
0
No attempt at defining problem.
Identify Strategies
50
Identifies multiple approaches for solving the problem that apply within a specific context.
40
Identifies multiple approaches for solving the problem, only some of which apply within a specific context.
30
Identifies only a single approach for solving the problem that does apply within a specific context.
20
Identifies one or more approaches for solving the problem that do not apply within a specific context.
10
Identifies no approach in solving the problem that do not apply within a specific context
0
No attempt at identifying strategies to solve problem.
Propose Solutions/Hypotheses
50
Proposes one or more solutions/hypotheses that indicates a deep comprehension of the problem.
40
Proposes one or more solutions/hypotheses that indicates comprehension of the problem.
30
Proposes one solution/hypothesis that is “off the shelf” rather than individually designed to address the specific contextual factors of the problem.
20
Proposes a solution/hypothesis that is difficult to evaluate because it is vague or only indirectly addresses the problem statement.
10
Proposes a solution/hypothesis that is difficult to evaluate because the solution does not address the problem statement.
0
No attempt at proposing solutions
Evaluate Potential Solutions
50
Evaluation of solutions is deep and elegant (for example, contains thorough and insightful explanation) and includes, deeply and thoroughly, all of the following: considers history of problem, reviews logic/reasoning, examines feasibility of solution, and weighs impacts of solution.
40
Evaluation of solutions is adequate (for example, contains thorough explanation) and includes the following: considers history of problem, reviews logic/reasoning, examines feasibility of solution, and weighs impacts of solution.
30
Evaluation of solutions is brief (for example, explanation lacks depth) and includes the following: considers history of problem, reviews logic/reasoning, examines feasibility of solution, and weighs impacts of solution.
20
Evaluation of solutions is superficial (for example, contains cursory, surface level explanation) and includes the following: considers history of problem, reviews logic/reasoning, examines feasibility of solution, and weighs impacts of solution.
10
Evaluation of solutions is superficial and includes none of the following: considers history of problem, reviews logic/reasoning, examines feasibility of solution.
0
No attempt at Evaluate Potential Solutions
Personal Reflection
50
Reviews results relative to the problem defined with thorough, specific considerations of need for further work.
40
Reviews results relative to the problem defined with some consideration of need for further work.
30
Reviews results in terms of the problem defined with little, if any, consideration of need for further work.
20
Reviews results superficially in terms of the problem defined with no consideration of need for further work.
10
Reviews results superficially in terms of the problem defined with no consideration of need for further work.
0
No attempt at a Personal Reflection
