The rubrics that follow are in lieu of the student designed rubrics, however the learner outcomes, web design components and journal component will be incorporated into the suggestions the students are given as they design their own rubric. The student rubrics will be used as both the criterion for the peer evaluation and the teacher evaluation of their projects.
