Rubrics

Rubric for the study of the model of the lung and the construction of the comparison table

Grading  Scale	The student’s performance
1 Excellent	·         Employed refined and complex reasoning and demonstrated understanding of differences that occur during inhalation and exhalation. ·         Provided clear, effective explanation detailing how the processes of both inhalation and exhalation were carried out.   ·          Precisely and appropriately used multiple scientific    representations to display a comparison between inhalation and exhalation ·         Applied creative and new scientific representation of the data for comparison between inhalation and exhalation.
2 Good	·         Used effective scientific reasoning. ·         A clear comparison between inhalation and exhalation was presented. ·          Effectively used scientific representations and notations to display a comparison between inhalation and exhalation ·          Appropriately used data to support the comparison
3 Not acceptable	·         Some evidence of scientific reasoning used. ·          Data recorded only partly supported the comparison. ·         An incomplete comparison between inhalation and exhalation or not clearly presented (e.g. missing step). ·         Attempted to use appropriate scientific representations and notations, but were incomplete (e.g., no labels on chart).
4 Poor	·         No evidence of scientific reasoning used. ·         No data recorded. ·         No comparison between inhalation and exhalation can be understood, or was unrelated to the comparison. ·         Did not use, or inappropriately used tables (scientific representations)

Rubric for Research about the Factors of Respiratory Problems

Grading Range	Student’s Performance
1 Excellent	·         Very good coverage of the factors of respiratory problems with notes, pictures and references. ·         Addressed the respiratory problems exceptionally well with good examples.
2 Good	·         Satisfactorily covered the factors of respiratory problems, including examples and references. ·         Adequately covered the respiratory problems with good reasoning.
3 Not acceptable	·         Gathered main points of factors of respiratory problems and some brief data about each problem. ·         Marginally addressed and described the respiratory problems without providing examples.
4 Poor	·         Small amount of information about factors of respiratory system just scratched. ·         Poorly defined the respiratory problems, didn’t mention any examples and references.
