I wasn't thinking separate categories. I was thinking of combining the two. Unless you mean the columns won't fit the actual number of letters if you use both. :)That's it.
Man, every time Colin McComb posts, I expect it to read, "Mmm...roadkill."
Goodnight, Pat.
<Tilts head>
Huh?
The vulture avi. ;)
Hee hee. I saw the vulture avatar, but I was wondering how all that came out of a response to my post. Mairkurion cleared it up for me, though. He was putting a lot of thoughts together and it just happened to be in with a response to my post.
Sorry. :P
But, but, Gary is going to close us down tomorrow. (Or today for you, I guess)
Wiki makes a great starting point for research. But hell even Solnes couldn't use it as a reference source for any of her classes. Since she had to include her references with each assignment she turned in, she tended to avoid telling them that she used it. She always followed it up with more reliable sources though.I tell my students they are welcome to start their research with Wikipedia, but never use it as an academic source. Never mind that some of it articles are better than the crap spouted by some of my colleagues...
Whoops, did I just say that?
I think that that's the appropriate way to use it. It's a great start, but ideally it leads one to other, more thorough sources.
Mairkurion, I think the second rubric may produce better results, primarily because it adds the "explained" category to encourage students to give more analysis to their points, and removes "preparation", which would largely reveal itself in the other categories anyway. My 2cp.
Thanks, CH. Did you see my last proposal?
I dropped Explained for the broader Quality of Communication.
Good night, Taig, if you don't want to read my updated profile first.

I try to add something every week now, just to keep things interesting.

Hmm. One of the things I liked about "explained" was that it made sure they knew to explain any claims they made in their presentation, rather than assuming anything was self-evident. That said, it all depends on what you're trying to achieve. Quality of Communication is certainly a valid metric.
