VCD 02 \| Project 2 – Six Word Autobiography VCD 02 \| Project 1 – Letterforms What is a rubric? A rubric explains the criteria I use in assigning grades and serves as a guide to help you as you complete your projects. What constitutes “A” work? I have not specified what constitutes an “A” to help you focus on doing the best work that you can with out being preoccupied by whether or not you’ve done just enough to get the right letter grade. Design is a creative endeavor. Consequently, doing well depends on more than just fulfilling the bare minimum assignment requirements. Rubric Code: UXB3624 Ready to use Public Rubric Subject: Arts and Design Type: Project Grade Levels: Undergraduate
