Instead of the antiquated handouts I've replaced those four assignments with a wiki - each learner will contribute links, text, audio, images and video to the wiki. I decided that I can't let them go and work in it without giving them some expectations so I spent a couple hours drafting this wiki rubric. I also cut 10% out of the mark and added it to a discussion component to drive people to talk in the talk pages of the wiki and the Discussion tool in the LMS. Here's that discussion rubric.

The course I teach generally is to people who are older, may have a job during the day and are aspiring web designers. I would say that most of these people are carving out a second career. This course is taught at a distance, but I intend to tweak the rubric for a continuing education delivery (maybe take out the discussion element, or reduce it for a face to face class).

If you see some glaring errors I'd appreciate any feedback, in the comments or on twitter (@dietsociety), or something that I didn't consider in my language. Thanks.
