This derived copy of "Rubrics for Exams and Group Projects in Ethics" has been created primarily for students in the course, "The Environment of the Organization." Students will be provided with rubrics to help them understand how group and individual work will be graded. It will also provide Jeopardy exercises designed to prepare them for course exams as well as to promote understanding of the cases and the concepts used in this course. Students who have lost their syllabi, will find copies of the most recent versions uploaded as a media file. This module is being developed as a part of an NSF-funded project, "Collaborative Development of Ethics Across the Curriculum Resources and Sharing of Best Practices," NSF SES 0551779.

- The final link to Computing Cases provides the reader with access to Chuck Huff's helpful advice on how to write and use rubrics in the context of teaching computer ethics.
Introduction
This module provides a range of assessment and study materials used in classes in business, engineering and computer ethics. Rubrics will help you understand the standards that will be used to assess your writing in essay exams and group projects. They also help your instructor stay focused on the same set of standards when assessing the work of the class. Jeopardy exercises will help focus your study efforts and help you to identify your strengths and weaknesses as you prepare for class exams. A copy of the course syllabus has been included in case you lose the copy given to you in the first class. As the semester progresses, expect this module to change and eventually fulfill the function of serving as a portal to other modules and online materials relevant to this and other classes.
