Here is the rubric you should use to determine how well your concept map is constructed.

Score:	1	2	3	4
Mathematical Accuracy	Makes many critical factual errors on the concept map.	Makes a number of factual errors on the concept map, but can create a rough overview of the topic.	Demonstrates mastery of the topic without significant factual error, or provides some incomplete statements.	Demonstrates mastery of the topic without factual error.
Mathematical Relevance	Many concepts are inappropriate for the topic.	Most concepts satisfy the basic requirements for the topic, but some do not directly relate to the topic.	Most concepts are suitable for the topic.	All concepts are extremely suitable for the topic
Mathematical Details	Rarely, if ever, communicates information with sufficient support and detail or with no clear theme.	Sporadically communicates information by providing a clear theme with sufficient support and detail.	Consistently communicates information by providing a clear theme with sufficient support and detail.	Consistently communicates information effectively by providing a clear theme with support that contains rich, vivid, and powerful details.
Concept Mapping Skills	Makes many critical errors when creating concept maps.	Makes a number of errors in creating a concept map, but can complete a rough approximation.	Creates a concept map without significant error.	Demonstrates mastery with concept mapping. Can create a concept map without error.
Concept Mapping Presentation	Cluttered design; low in visual appeal; requires a lot of scrolling to view entire diagram; choice of colors lacks visual appeal and impedes comprehension.	Design is somewhat clean, yet still low in visual appeal; design choice impedes comprehension of concepts.	Design is fairly clean, with a few exceptions; diagram has visual appeal; four or fewer symbol shapes; fits page well; uses color effectively most of time.	Clean design; high visual appeal; four or fewer symbol shapes; fits page without a lot of scrolling; color used effectively for emphasis.
