Scales for Scoring Role-Plays

Scales for Scoring Role-Plays (0-50 points)
0 points	F. Student either didn't show up or gave up entirely.
15 points	D. Student attempted to deal with the situation but was largely incomprehensible. Grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation errors made often made student's utterances incomprehensible. Student obviously had not practiced for the exam or mastered the basic material presented in the course, but managed to say a sentence or two. Weak.
18 points	C. Student's responses were understandable with much effort and good will on your part, but contained lots of major errors in pronunciation, word choice, and/or grammar. Student is rusty on vocabulary and grammar presented and practiced in the course. Decent.
20 points	B. Student showed evidence of having prepared but faulty grammar and word use, hesitation, and/or pronunciation made it somewhat difficult to communicate. One or two major errors would have hindered understanding by native speakers not used to dealing with non-native speakers of French. Very good.
24 points	A. Student was obviously prepared and although there were some mistakes in grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary, s/he would probably have been understood by a patient native speaker used to dealing with non-native speakers. Answers were not only understandable, but delivered with fluency and correctness. Student has mastered the grammar and vocabulary treated in the course. You are impressed! Excellent.

NOTE: You may use in-between numbers to assign high or low A's, B's, etc.
