Evaluation

Grading will be based upon the criteria in this rubric.  The purpose of this exercise is to demonstrate an understanding of the financial marketplace, as well as three specific types of business financing.  Students will also demonstrate the ability to process the information they have gathered and, as a group, reach a conclusion about which type of financing they should pursue.  The students must also provide evidence that each of them fully participated in this project.  Grades will be determined as follows:

 Total Points Possible = 15

            A = 14-15 points

            B = 12-13 points

            C = 10-11 points

         D = 8-9 points

           F = <8 points
