Rubric for CI Rotation

I've tried to be clear about how the individual parts of this unit might look as you are able to demonstrate increasing skill putting it together.   I know that your ability to do all this is related to the context established by mentor teacher.  This rubric is only related to how well you are able construct your ci rotation, not to how it will be graded.
