Computer Science Program Rubric - JAVA Name__________________________________

Test/Quiz/Activity #___ Date___________________________________

_____ 45/100 Program is incoherent, illogical, and indicates a lack of knowledge of proper syntax
and correct modular programming style. Errors are numerous ( 10 or more ) and
require a significant amount of time to correct.

_____55/100 Program shows signs of becoming workable, and uses some aspects of correct JAVA
syntax and formatting. Errors are minimal ( 3 <= X < 10 ).

_____60/100 Program does not function as expected and does not compile or run. The program
contains 1 or 2 errors that are relatively simple to correct. Coding and JAVA syntax
seem appropriate for the most part.

_____65/100 Program compiles and runs without errors. Output is INCORRECT or

PARTIALLY correct (~25%), but contains some calculation or formatting errors.

_____70/100 Program compiles and runs without errors. Output is PARTIALLY correct (~50%),
but contains some calculation or formatting errors. A few measures were taken to
format the output with respect to alignment, elegance, and readability.

_____75/100 Program compiles and runs without errors. Output is MOSTLY correct (~75%), but
contains some calculation or formatting errors. Notable measures were taken to
format the output with respect to alignment, elegance, and readability.

_____80/100 Program compiles and runs without errors. Output calculations are COMPLETELY
correct (100%). Notable measures were taken to format the output in respect to
alignment, elegance, and readability.
