Evaluation Rubrics
It is important for students to have a clear understanding of how they will be evaluated. For this reason we make our rubrics used to evaluate your writing and Portfolio of Learning, the mid-term student evaluation form, and the final Oral Presentation Evaluation form available to you in advance. In addition, we provide bilingual rubrics that you should present to your language and elective instructors two weeks prior to the last day of class. It is the student's responsibility to provide these forms to all Zhejiang University and adjunct instructors, to pickup the evaluation from each instructor and submit to your Faculty Adviser by the last day of the Long Island University semester.
Writing & Portfolio of Learning
China Center faculty will use the below analytic rubrics for the holistic scoring of writing and research projects for Area Studies courses and for the final Portfolio of Learning.

Mid-Term Evaluation Form
The Mid-Term Evaluation form will be returned to the student by the faculty adviser typically during the ninth week of the semester and is based on documentation of learning provided by the student before the last day of the eighth week of the semester. The primary purpose of the Mid-Term Evaluation is to provide formal notice to students of potential loss of credit or the possibility of receiving an incomplete (INC) for any course.
Brooklyn campus policy is that students may retain an INC for only one semester, after which the student will lose credit for those courses permanently. This policy applies to all Friends World students effective September 1, 2005.
