Visual aids could be more creative or better integrated.

Fair (2 points) – The presentation is somewhat clear, but organization and evidence are inconsistent. See that rubric in my TPT store. This is great for students because it shows them how to prepare and where to focus their efforts.

Visual aids enhance the presentation.

Good (3 points) – The presentation is clear and mostly well-organized. This type of rubric breaks the presentation into categories, allowing you to assess different skills independently. For you, a rubric is a lifesaver during grading. Here is how it breaks down.

Excellent (4 points) – The presentation is engaging, clear, and well-organized.

The student shows limited understanding of the topic and struggles with delivery. The student demonstrates a deep understanding of the topic, supports ideas with strong evidence, and communicates confidently. This accompanied my biography brochure project. Here’s an example.
