Rubrics For Building A Structure

The document provides criteria for evaluating a structure building project on multiple dimensions. A level 4 project demonstrates clear evidence of testing, troubleshooting and refinements based on data. The structure functions extraordinarily well under atypical stresses. Explanations from all group members accurately reflect scientific principles. Information is gathered from several sources systematically. The plan is neat with clear labeling and measurements. Data is collected carefully multiple times. Appropriate materials are creatively modified. Construction carefully follows the plans accurately. The journal completely documents all aspects of the project.
