Judging Criteria for Best Ideas

For 3E-Social Ideas Judging, please contact Debbi Brock

The judging criteria for all other ideas are divided into the following sections:

Innovation (1) Is this Idea innovative?

(2) Does this idea allow more than one way to do things or more than one answer to a question, since real-life situations rarely have only one correct alternative?

(3) Allow students to choose a form of response with which they are comfortable.

Critical Thinking (4) Does this idea reflect real world needs, by increasing students' problem-solving abilities and ability to construe meaning?

(5) Does this idea reveal how students solve problems, not just the final answer, since reasoning determines students' ability to transfer learning?

(6) Does this idea promote transference by presenting tasks that require students to intelligently adapt modifiable learning tools?

Theoretical Foundations (7) Does this idea build on the theoretical foundations of the entrepreneurship intellectual community from which the tasks are derived, thus providing a context for learning and enhancing retention, meaning, and aesthetic appreciation.

(8) Does this idea require students to display an understanding of the theory?

(9) Does this idea fuse other academic fields (Finance, Marketing etc) to help explain the learning objectives?

Other

(10) Can this Idea be easily replicated?
