Concept Sketches and Mass Wasting

A concept sketch is a simplified drawing illustrating the main aspects of landscape or system. It is annotated with concise but complete labels that identify important features. Short sentences describe the processes that are occurring. The final aim is to show the relationships between features and processes. It is not simply a sketch labeled with only the names of features. See a rubric below for what is expected for each success level. Point values will be determined by your instructor.

Please consider GEOS Physical Geology Lab Manual as well as your lecture textbook as you create your concept check.

Skill	Emerging	Progressing	Partial Mastery	Mastery
*Identify* Features	Incomplete labeling.	Some labeling.	Most clearly labeled.	Relevant features clearly labeled (see "Rotational Landslide" illustration in lecture text reading), including (if appropriate) the scarp, main body, slip surface (a.k.a. rupture surface) and toe.
*Identify* Processes	Incomplete identification and description.	Incomplete identification or description.	Clear identification and description.	Relevant processes clearly identified and described.
*Explain* the Connections and Relationships Between Features/Processes	Incomplete connections/relationships.	Suggests some connections/relationship.	Most connections/relationships highlighted effectively.	Relevant connections/relationships highlighted effectively.
*Demonstrate* Proper Use of Terminology	Incomplete or inappropriate use of terminology/units. Frequent errors and misunderstanding of the subject.	Attempts use of appropriate terminology/units. Some errors and missing components.	Consistent use of appropriate terminology/units. Few errors or missing components.	Consistent and successful use of appropriate terminology/units.
*Assess* Scientific Accuracy	Lacks organization with frequent errors, demonstrating misunderstanding of the subject.	Drawings are readable, with occasional oversimplifications, errors and/or missing components.	Drawings are readable. Consistent use of symbology and/or colors/patterns to illustrate major features and/or processes.	Drawings are clearly readable with accurate details illustrated through appropriate symbols and/or colors/patterns. Sketch shows a scale.
