| Procedure | Clear step-by-step description | Description missing details making it difficult for another scientist to repeat the experiment | Description missing so much detail it would be impossible to repeat |
| Results | Clearly written description of results comparing controls and variables | Results are presented but no comparison between controls and variables are made. | No written description of results |
| Data tables, graphs or charts | Easy to interpret, clear labels, all data, including calculated averages | Disorganized (not easy to understand, missing labels) but all data included | Disorganized and or data clearly missing |
| Conclusion | Clearly explains acceptance or rejection of hypothesis using data to support the conclusion; identifies sources of error | Accepts or rejects hypothesis but does not use data to explain why; or does not identify sources of error | Does not explain the conclusion and does not identify sources of error |
