Answer criteria
type rubric
rubric
5+ topics with at least 1 sentence each on why-it-matters = 4; 5+ topics no rationale = 3; 3-4 topics with rationale = 2; <3 topics = 1
Hints
  1. Think across categories: school, community, environment, equity, sports, technology, family, friendship, learning.
  2. Why-it-matters can be personal experience, community impact, or future consequence.
Misconceptions to watch
  • Topics are too vague ('school is bad') without specifying what about school.
  • Topics are entirely abstract (no personal stake or reason for caring).
