GRADE: These students received a score of 21 out of 25 points based on the following criteria:

Typed: (5 out of 5 points)

Follows MLA style: (4 out of 5 points) - They had a few style errors. I corrected them before I typed this.

Number of Sources: (10 out of 10 points) - They had more than the required number of sources which was 5 at the time the bibliography was due. (Of course, by the end of the project they should have many more, but this part was due Feb. 14th.)

Variety of Sources: (2 out of 5 points): They didn't have a good variety of sources. Most of their sources are online images. They had no "real" books, only encyclopedias. (I awarded 1 point for encyclopedias, 2 points for online sources and 2 points for books.)
