Final Rubric Scoring

Question 1

A position is taken regarding the nuclear industry's overall, global, performance. Analysis is supported by specific evidence which has been thoughtfully assessed. Analysis makes connections to the central question from each of the following components:

1) quantity and quality of power plants built and the implications,

2) the safety record of global power plants, and

3) cost factors contributing to the current economics of nuclear power.

Examples are given to support position. Examples have detail and their connection to the argument is clearly explained. Response is well organized.

Question 2

Connection between nuclear power and climate change is explained. Role, positive or negative, of nuclear energy in addressing rising demand for energy is explained. A position is taken regarding whether nuclear energy will or should take a larger or smaller part in the future of energy provision given

1) its connection to climate change,

2) the potential benefits of nuclear energy, and

3) the potential risks of nuclear energy. Analysis is supported by specific evidence which has been thoughtfully assessed.

Examples are given to support position. Examples have detail and their connection to the argument is clearly explained. Response is well organized.

Question 3

A position has been taken about why it has been so difficult to solve the nuclear waste disposal problem in the United States. Overall argument is clear and compelling and provides sufficient details.

Thorough analysis of at least one major factor that contributes to the difficulty of solving this issue in the U.S.

- incorporates course material

- clear evidence / examples given

- sufficient detail in discussion

- comparison of international handling of the problem

Outlining your argument: How to start

Rewatch any videos that may be relevant to the prompts (as provided on the course objectives)

Use other credible sources you may find, as long as you cite them appropriately

For Question 1…

→ Read through Final Question One Suggestions

→ Look at different power plants we have explored (1986-present).

→ In terms of the safety record, assess different power plant operations that we discussed in class or ones you researched on your own (be sure to cite your sources!) .

→ Also, their incidents, what they did wrong, etc. Mention specific incidents in your argument!

→ For cost factors, take a look at Pronuclear Rationale and any other resources as long as you cite and prove your argument with evidence

→ There are multiple elements to this question, as outlined in the rubric, ensure all are addressed

For Question 2…

→ Read through Final Question Two Suggestions

→ Pronuclear Rationale is also a great resource for this question!

→ For this question, make sure you factor in what we know know about nuclear energy, as well as future plans (much of this was discussed in Objective 10 and 11)

→ Remember to back up what your predictions are with a substantial amount of evidence

For Question 3…

→ This question is a great opportunity to take into account everything you have

learned about the U.S. and nuclear power. Take the information you found most useful to factor into your argument. Also, it is important to compare and contrast the U.S. with other countries and their handling of this issue in your argument. There are many resources within the objectives on the course website to use for this.

→ Objective 11 and Objective 13 have many great resources for this prompt
