Grading Rubric for Photoshop Elements Projects
Grading rubrics are used to determine point totals for each project. Please refer to the Checklists on the website for each individual project. The rubrics
are used based on the requirements on these checklists. (i.e. not every project requires Hyperlinks and Action Buttons - so that would not be used in
determining a grade for that project.) Total point value stated on the Project Checklist.
