Rubric for Desktop Publishing
The main purpose of a rubric is to help you do your best work. Use the rubric to make sure you understand what you are expected to learn. Is all of your work best described by column 4? If not, what can you improve? If you have access to a printer, you may want to print the rubric for reference as your work through the activities. Ask your teacher for help if you have any questions about the rubric.
