Presentations Grade-Sheet

Directions: Name(s): _______________________ _____________________

• Fill in top-half only. Turn in this sheet stapled with your handout and bibliography right before your presentation. You will pass out the remaining handouts to the class. One grade sheet per group may be turned in.

• Grade yourself: On a scale of 0 to 6, rate yourself (roughly) with 0 = “No”, 1 = “Inadequate”, 2 = “Partially”, 3 = “Mostly”, 4 = “Adequate”, and 5 or 6 = “Yes”.
• The expectations on the presentations are less than on the analysis paper (after all these are not topics we have covered). I do not expect you to do entirely original work for the bio and theory sections (although you may). It is primarily an opportunity for you to do some independent research as well as provide the class with another (your own) perspective on philosophical issues.
• These are fairly straightforward grades. If you think you did well, you probably did. I expect many to do well. My grade will most typically match yours. If it does not, I will explain why. Hint: The areas I usually mark down are #2 and #5. All material from websites or book sources should be footnoted with a bibliography. Note: A Presentation from Tittle requires no additional sources.
