The document describes a rubric for evaluating student presentations with four levels of performance: beginning, developing, accomplished, and exemplary. It evaluates presentation skills, quality and quantity of research, collaboration, and use of presentation software. The highest level is exemplary, where the student effectively presents well-researched information, works collaboratively, and designs professional presentations.
