Rubric for Evaluating UML Diagrams in System Analysis and Design

Use Case Diagram (10 points)

Criteria Description
10-9 points (Excellent) The diagram clearly identifies all actors,
use cases, and their relationships. Includes
all required elements with no errors or
inconsistencies.
8-7 points (Proficient) The diagram identifies most actors and use
cases with minimal errors or omissions.
Relationships are mostly correct.
6-5 points (Satisfactory) The diagram includes basic elements but
lacks depth or contains multiple errors in
actor/use case definitions or relationships.
4-0 points (Needs Improvement) The diagram is incomplete or contains
significant errors in actors, use cases, or
relationships.

Class Diagram (10 points)

Criteria Description
10-9 points (Excellent) The diagram provides a well-structured
representation of classes, attributes,
methods, and relationships. Includes
accurate multiplicity and association.
8-7 points (Proficient) Most classes, attributes, and relationships
are correct. Multiplicity and association are
generally accurate with minor omissions.
6-5 points (Satisfactory) Basic structure is present, but some
elements are missing or inaccurately
defined.

significant errors in class structure or
relationships.

Sequence Diagram (10 points)

Criteria Description
10-9 points (Excellent) Clearly represents the flow of messages
between objects, lifelines, and activation
boxes. Includes all required elements with
proper sequence.
8-7 points (Proficient) Flow of messages and interactions is
mostly correct with minor errors or
omissions in sequence or structure.
6-5 points (Satisfactory) Includes basic interactions but lacks detail
or contains multiple errors in sequence or
message flow.
4-0 points (Needs Improvement) The diagram is incomplete or lacks
coherence in representing interactions.

Collaboration Diagram (10 points)

Criteria Description
10-9 points (Excellent) Accurately represents object interactions
and relationships, with clear numbering of
messages.
8-7 points (Proficient) Most interactions are accurate, but some
minor errors or omissions are present.
6-5 points (Satisfactory) Basic interactions are shown, but the
diagram lacks detail or includes multiple
errors.
4-0 points (Needs Improvement) The diagram is incomplete or poorly
structured.

State Chart Diagram (10 points)

Criteria Description
10-9 points (Excellent) Includes all necessary states and
transitions, accurately representing the
state changes of the system or object.
8-7 points (Proficient) Most states and transitions are correct,
with minimal errors or omissions.
6-5 points (Satisfactory) Basic states and transitions are present but
lack detail or accuracy.
4-0 points (Needs Improvement) The diagram is incomplete or fails to
represent states and transitions accurately.

Activity Diagram (10 points)

Criteria Description
10-9 points (Excellent) Clearly represents activities, decisions, and
transitions with proper flow. Includes all
required elements.
8-7 points (Proficient) Most activities and decisions are
represented accurately with minimal
errors.
6-5 points (Satisfactory) Basic flow is present, but the diagram lacks
detail or contains multiple errors.
4-0 points (Needs Improvement) The diagram is incomplete or lacks
coherence in representing activities.

Component Diagram (10 points)

Criteria Description
10-9 points (Excellent) Clearly represents all components,
interfaces, and their relationships.
Accurately shows dependencies and
interactions.
8-7 points (Proficient) Most components and relationships are
 correct with minimal omissions or errors.
6-5 points (Satisfactory) Basic components and relationships are
present, but the diagram lacks detail or
accuracy.
4-0 points (Needs Improvement) The diagram is incomplete or shows
significant errors in components or
relationships.

Deployment Diagram (10 points)

Criteria Description

and connections. Includes clear details
about deployment configuration.
8-7 points (Proficient) Most nodes and connections are correct
with minimal errors or omissions.

but the diagram lacks detail or contains
multiple errors.
4-0 points (Needs Improvement) The diagram is incomplete or fails to
represent deployment accurately.

Package Diagram (10 points)

dependencies, with an accurate and
organized structure.
8-7 points (Proficient) Most packages and dependencies are
correct with minimal errors or omissions.
