How To Use The Scoring Guide for Student Products

There are two steps to using the Scoring Guide.

  1. Create a customized scoring guide for the student product being evaluated.
  2. Compute a score for each product.

What is the definition of a student product?
How do I compute the score?

Step 1: Create a Scoring Guide

  • On the first page of the guide, there are 14 types of student products listed. All student products, no matter what the subject or content area, should fall into one of the 14 categories. Choose one of the 14 categories.

  • After you have chosen your category, the guide will automatically generate a two-part template. Part I, Communication of Content, is not interactive; rather, it matches the type of communication you have chosen.

  • Part II, Craftsmanship of Expression, is interactive. You click only those items that apply to your student product. For example, if the product is designed with desktop publishing, the category "Voice and Sound" would not be clicked.

  • You will then be asked to choose holistic descriptions or analytical descriptions of the criteria you will be assessing. The analytical version gives detailed descriptions, while the holistic version gives a briefer version of the same information.

  • Finally, you can choose to leave the scoring cells blank, or have the program automatically generate a score that equals 100.

    How do I compute the score?

  • Select "Generate Preview"; this is where you can customize your guide. There are text boxes in each field in which you can enter your own criteria.

  • Now select Create the Guide, your criteria will be included.

  • Print!
