Does Scoring Policy #10 contradict the fourth bullet on the 2-point description in the 3-point rubric?
Scoring policy #10 refers to a conceptual error, whereas the fourth and seventh bullets of the rubrics refer to partial or some understanding of the concept(s). These bullets imply that the student is on his/her way to understanding the underlying concepts embodied in the task but is not quite there, unlike the student who actually makes a conceptual error demonstrating no understanding.
