Computer Science Project Grade Guidelines
Computer science projects will be graded using the following rubric. Students will not have the same level of coding competency so it is expected that the final products will vary in the amount of complexity added.
Automatic Deductions
-10: Comments not added to code. (All functions or methods should be preceded with comments. Comments may also be used to describe uses of variables and other abstractions.)
-30: Code does not run. (make sure you test it!)
-10: Code runs but produces an error.
-5: Late
Grades (Adjusted for 2023-2024)
100: Shows creativity, multiple components added outside of what was originally presented. Code has been changed into a new or more complex application. Shows great complexity. User interface enhanced greatly.
95: Shows creativity, components added outside of what was originally presented. Shows complexity. User interface enhanced significantly.
90: Shows creativity, more than one component added, shows adequate complexity. User interface enhanced.
85: Shows creativity, at least one component added. User interface enhanced.
80: Limited changes made, runs without errors.
