Rubric for All Sunshine Makes a Desert: A WebQuest on Deserts

There's an ability to discuss the topic using examples or evidence. New information has been firmly connected to previous related knowledge. An easy use of evidence shows a sound understanding.
Group Synthesis The group's answer to the main question seems more a mixing than a blending. Ideas are thrown together, not necessarily thought through. The group's answer to the main question is based on clear understanding of key issues and works to balance them. Some weak spots may still exist. This group's answer to the main question is soundly reasoned and addresses key issues that make the topic a challenge to come to terms with.

Care and creativity make this an interesting and polished presentation. The quality of the ideas is reflected in the presentation.
