HOW+WILL+THE+WIKI+BE+MARKED?

=Marking the Wiki=

This is a team effort, so some of the marks will come from how good the whole of your team Wiki is.

Marking the whole wiki:

Every student in the team will get the marks for the whole wiki added to their score. These marks will depend on:


 * How much of the whole wiki can be correctly navigated
 * How appropriate the wiki is for year 6 pupils (name, layout, colour scheme)
 * The colour scheme used for ALL headings, and ALL text (fewer marks for the default setting)
 * The same font size for ALL headings and ALL text

You will be marked individually on the section for your ecosystem, depending on:


 * the number of your links from your Ecosystems page to all 10 pages (correctly named with the name of the ecosystem first)
 * the content of your pages (how good your information is)
 * your images (if appropriate, suitably sized, not bearing watermarks or copyright information)
 * suitable information on your Overview page, including at least one image
 * suitable information about Locations, including images
 * suitable Maps, with descriptions
 * information about a sample location, with maps and images
 * information about the climate in general - with images
 * information about plants - with explanations of why those types of plants are adapted to the ecosystem
 * information about animals - with explanations of why those animals are adapted to the ecosystem
 * information about threats to your ecosystem, with the consequences of those threats, and what might be done about it
 * a spreadsheet chart for climate - with title, labels, formatting and an explanation of what it tells us
 * a full list of sources
 * a judgement about how good your section is

Homework, your homework will be graded, and your total marks added to your final mark: For each homework:
 * blue - 30 marks
 * green - 20 marks
 * amber - 10 marks
 * red - 0 marks

In addition, your teacher will keep a record of your progress on the sheet in your folder.
