You were unsafe and are very lucky
not to have been hurt. This
experiment can actually hurt you.
If you’re in this category, you
get no points for this project.

I’m not worried about you getting
hurt, but you should have taken
some safety precautions that you
didn’t take.
Everything was done very safely –
with goggles and gloves and aprons
and good ventilation if necessary.

My three-year
old nephew
could’ve done
this one.
Try stepping up
your game,
Bucky!

I would’ve
handed this to a
middle schooler
to perform, and I
think they
would’ve done it
successfully.
Not bad, you did
at least do
something that a
little kid
shouldn’t do
without
supervision, but
there’s not much
challenge here.
There’s some
challenge to
making this
happen, but it
wasn’t anything I
would doubt an
untrained
freshman could
do.
Mr Dusch could
do this with his
eyes closed.
Most students
would screw it
up at least the
first time,
though.
This took special
chemistrystudent skills. In
fact, Mr Dusch
might have to
work a bit to get
this right.

You know this is
a chemistry
class, right?
You did
successfully use
a science word
or two, but I
have no
evidence that
you understand
what they mean.
I counted like a half
dozen words used,
but they’re kind of
not connected, and
I don’t think you
really understand
them – just have
heard them before.
You used a lot
of words and
used most of
them right
but not all of
them.
You used a
bunch of science
words, and you
clearly
understand
what they all
mean. Good
review…
I’m totally using
this video to
introduce this
topic next year.
Best topic
coverage I’ve
ever seen on
video.
If you get this,
I’m not giving
you any points
for this project.

You didn’t
perform the
experiment
correctly
because you
didn’t read it
before.
You barely
pulled it off, but
it’s pretty
obvious that you
hadn’t read the
experiment all
the way through
before.
You seem to
have practiced
the experiment
but forgot to put
some important
part that you
had to scramble
to get.
You nailed the
experiment, but
you seemed to
be totally
winging what
you want to say
or explain.
You aced the
experiment, and
you knew what
you want to say,
but you were
still using notes.
You had the
experiment and
patter down pat.
Your practice
paid off and
sounded natural
without notes.

You didn’t film
the experiment

performed it for
Dusch after
school.

Even after
playing it a few
times, I still
couldn’t make
out some parts
of the video
because of
crappy audio or
video or both.
I could hear you
and could see
you, but I had to
replay a few
times to make it
out.
At least you go
Dusch the video
somehow.
At least you got

Good sound and
video quality –
but not high def.
You sent it to
Dusch as an
attachment or
on a USB.
You have heard
of the internet,
right?

Good sound and
video quality –
but not high def.
At least you
posted it online
and sent Dusch
as link.
The sound was
clear. The video
was clear and in
high def. The
video was posted
online, and the
link was sent to
Dusch
successfully.
