Scientific Drawing Assessment Tool:
Drawing contains parts
are specified in the directions:
5 = all required parts and title exist
4 = all required parts exist, but no
title
3 = 1-2 required parts missing
2 = 3-4 required parts missing
1 = 5 or more required parts missing
The parts of the
drawing are correctly located:
4 = all required parts are in their
proper locations
3 = 1 required part is misplaced
2 = 2 required parts are misplaced
1 = 3 or more required parts are
misplaced
The parts of the eye
are identified:
5 = all required parts are clearly,
neatly, and correctly Κ ΚΚΚ identified
4 = all rerecord parts are correctly
identified, but lack ΚΚΚ clarity to
