Grade Sheets

Grade Sheets are a way to highlight the elements of the rubric and combine this evaluation with the conceptual feedback of Hypothes.is.  As in the sample below, review is divided into two categories: Design and Content. The Design section includes many of the metrics associated with creating a Scalar book, including delineating multimodal elements, annotations, and bibliographic information. The Content section assesses the important development of ideas and argument in the written sections.  The appeal of Scalar as a platform is the ability to develop an argument and engage with evidence in creative and dynamic ways. This development occurs both in the small-scale pages as well as in the larger book, particularly by employing the connectivity of Scalar’s paths. Ideally, a grade sheet should evaluate both of these elements.
 

Students use of the multimodal elements is where these two elements of design and content often overlap. The placement of the images and videos is imperative to the design of pages, but the author’s ability to employ these images as evidence in his/her prose is also a crucial critical skill.
