Cancer Jig-Sawing Presentation Rubric
Five Groups Total for each class!
1) Cancer cells have profound genetic defects-STOP at cell cycle title
2) Cell Cycle – stop at six hallmarks of cancer title
3) Six hallmarks of cancer 1-3
4) Six hallmarks of cancer 4-6
5) Evolution of tumor cells – end of packet
Below you will find the criteria for your presentation. You will be given one class period to organize your thoughts and take notes on your topic and talk with your group members. Please note, the reading packets will not be available outside of class. You are invited to stay after school/Reps if you need more time with the packet.
1) Equal participation by all members in the delivery of your topic
2) Good flow of information…presented in order it was given in the reading
3) Short, to the point notes. Remember your notes should prompt you on what you are presenting about. You should glance at them every once in a while to keep your focus while you are in front of the class or to remember big words but you should in NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM READ NOTES to the class. You really should have your material memorized when you get up to present!
4) Wordy notes will not be acceptable! Your notes can either be PPT or overhead style or BOTH like I often do. Use the PPT for images and overhead for notes!
5) An overall feeling by Mrs. Jenkins that your group has a thorough understanding of what you are presenting about
6) The ability to answer any questions your peers may have to re-clarify what you presented on! Believe me, there are a lot of unanswered questions out there about cancer and I don’t expect you to know the answers!
Notes:
1) This will count as a lab grade
2) You will receive an individual grade and a group grade
3) If anyone in your group is not prepared it will reflect on the whole “group” grade
4) Make sure any computer portions of your project work before the presentation day or your grade will be affected!
Turn into Mrs. Jenkins:
1) Any part of your presentation. If you do a PPT, please print them out and give me a HARD copy. Also please plan to turn in any overheads or other notes to me. HARD COPIES only!
2) A piece of paper with all the group members listed, including your own name. Please list your name as the first name. On that sheet of paper, please give each member a grade based on how much effort they put into their part of the project. Use the grading scale and example below:
Jenny Jenkins 3
Denise Farrell 3
Dawn Guildner 3
Katie Cave 3

1 did not collaborate well with group, was unprepared, had not idea what they were talking about, read their slides etc.
2 provided an average amount of effort, did not fully understand their material, mostly prepared but had to read a good amount of their slides
3 really worked hard, was prepared, helpful in the group understanding the material got up and rocked the presentation portion of the project
