- There are 3 parts to question 1:
- Why is an expanded concept of “variation” necessary in statistical improvement?
- Is all variation necessarily numerical?
- How might this approach [i.e., an expanded concept of variation] invalidate concepts and techniques taught in traditional basic statistics courses?

| This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeTeamwork | 2.0 to >1.5 pts Exemplary Team worked well together to achieve objectives; each member contributed in a valuable way; all data sources were utilized; presentation of concepts indicated a high level of collaboration. 1.5 to >1.0 pts Generally Good Team worked well together most of the time; a few occurrences of communication breakdown or failure to collaborate when appropriate. 1.0 to >0 pts Needs Improvement or Not Complete Team did not collaborate or communicate well; members appeared to work independently, without regard to team objectives or priorities. | 2.0 pts |
| This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeQuality of Main Points of Answers | 2.0 to >1.5 pts Exemplary Answers offered insightful and thorough information or approach to the topic; Answers are clearly based on logical and sound analysis and reasoning. 1.5 to >1.0 pts Generally Good Answers offered mostly insightful and thorough information or approach to the topic, but missed 1-2 important considerations; Even more depth of analysis and reasoning may have led to different answers. 1.0 to >0 pts Needs Improvement or Not Complete Answers offered little to no insightful or thorough information or approach to the topics: missed >2 important considerations; Most applications of analysis and reasoning would have led to a different answers. | 2.0 pts |
| This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeSubject Knowledge | 2.0 to >1.5 pts Exemplary Deliverable demonstrated knowledge of the course content by integrating major concepts into the response; demonstrated evidence of extensive research and depth of thinking about the chapter topics. 1.5 to >1.0 pts Generally Good Deliverable demonstrated knowledge of the course content by integrating minor concepts into the response; demonstrated evidence of limited research and depth of thinking about the chapter topics. 1.0 to >0 pts Needs Improvement or Not Complete Insufficient information obtained and/or sources lack validity; analysis and design considerations were not supported by the information collected. | 2.0 pts |
| This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeSupporting Materials | 2.0 to >1.5 pts Exemplary All relevant information obtained; sources were valid; analysis and design considerations were well supported. 1.5 to >1.0 pts Generally Good Sufficient information obtained; most sources were valid; analysis and design considerations were mostly supported. 1.0 to >0 pts Needs Improvement or Not Complete Insufficient information obtained; sources lack validity; analysis and design considerations were not supported. | 2.0 pts |
| This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeComposition | 2.0 to >1.5 pts Exemplary Deliverable is well organized and written; underlying logic clearly and concisely articulated; words chosen precisely express intended meaning and aid comprehension; diagrams and analyses enhanced and clarified ideas; sentences were grammatical and free from errors. 1.5 to >1.0 pts Generally Good Deliverable is mostly well organized and written; underlying logic clearly and concisely articulated in most parts; words well chosen, with some exceptions; diagrams consistent with text; sentences had some errors, but do not hinder understanding. 1.0 to >0 pts Needs Improvement or Not Complete Deliverable lacked overall organization; reader has to make considerable effort to understand logic and flow of ideas; diagrams absent or inconsistent with text; grammatical and spelling errors made it difficult for the reader to interpret the text. | 2.0 pts |
