Web Quest Critical Reflection Rubric

After completing the Web Quest Assignment, each student will write an essay that employs the QEP Process to evaluate Piaget and Vygotsky’s theories of cognitive development. The essay will require students to make a decision about which theory is most applicable to children today. This is an individual assignment and it will be assessed using the university’s QEP Writing Sample Rubric.

Your paper should address each of the following elements of critical thinking and the core values to explain your decision about which theory (Piaget or Vygotsky) is most applicable to children today.

Please note that the grading scale on this rubric is different from the grading scale used on other education course rubrics. It aligns with the Saint Leo Quality Enhancement Plan rubric.
Explanation of Components:
The rubric has three components, which together reflect the expectations of the QEP A Model for a Challenging World. These are Critical Thinking, Core Values, and Decision Making. The component of Critical Thinking is further broken into eight elements identified by the Foundation for Critical Thinking.
• Critical Thinking
o Purpose: This element requires learners to identify goals, objectives, desired outcomes, intent, and/or function of the work being considered. The purpose is what the learner is trying to accomplish.
o Question at Issue: This element requires learners to identify the problem or topic that is central to achieving the purpose identified in the first element. The question at issue makes the purpose more specific by asking questions to narrow the information needed.
o Assumptions: This element requires learners to identify background theory and things that are taken for granted by the learner as related to the topic being considered.
o Implications and Consequences: This element requires learners to identify what follows from their reasoning through other elements and to consider costs and benefits.
o Information: This element requires learners to find data, evidence, and observations related to the topic.
o Concepts: This element requires learners to organize ideas and create categories related to the topic.
o Conclusions and Interpretations: This element requires learners to make inferences and develop solutions. This is an element of critical thinking and is different from the Decision Making because there can be several conclusions and interpretations and there will be one final decision.
o Points of View: This element requires learners to consider more than one perspective and frame of reference. These include the recognition that the learner has a point of view, that the discipline may have a point of view, and that other people/disciplines may have other points of view.
• Core Values: This component requires learners to consider the Saint Leo University core values of excellence, respect, community, responsible stewardship, personal development, and integrity as a lens to interpret the elements of critical thinking.
• Decision Making: This component requires learners to use both core values and critical thinking to make a decision that leads to action. The learner will consider the conclusions and interpretations identified through the critical thinking process and select one decision that takes into account the critical thinking steps and the core values.
