Evaluation

The following is the rubric by which you will be graded. I have outlined all the criteria, and also included the file in case you would like to download a copy for personal use. You will receive your grade based on your ability to demonstrate your knowledge to me and your fellow classmates. You might want to look it over before you begin to be sure that you are completing everything that you will be graded on. Good luck and have fun!
