iRubric: Rockets Poster rubric

There is a neat diagram and caption showing how multistage rockets work. You can tell by looking at this poster that the person has some understanding of how multistage rockets works and the advantage they provide.

There is a picture of multistage rockets included. The explanation is clear.

Either the picture or description of multistage rockets is missing. The description does not tell you the advantage multistage rockets provide.

At least two people are on this poster. Robert H. Goddard and Konstantin Tsiolkovsky are two very important ones. At least one or both of them must be mentioned. There is a picture of each person and a brief but clear explanation of what they did. The writing is in the student's own words.

Tsiolkovsky and/or Goddard are not mentioned. There are not pictures and captions for the two people. The caption does not clearly or correctly explain what the people did. (Ask if you aren't sure!)

Above and beyond effort...
Poster is very colorful and interesting to look at. The entire poster looks like they took extra time to make it neat. Pictures are lined up neatly. Everything is neatly cut. There are different colors of text. They might have colored backgrounds/frames around pictures and text.

Expected effort...

This poster is neat. You don't see torn edges or parts stapled on. You don't see tape showing. There is some effort at making it look neat and colorful.

Below expectations...

This poster can not be called "neat." It looks like the main concern was just getting it done. Everything is hurried and rushed. The overall appearance is sloppy.
