Enlightenment 7 points  \nGeneral Scoring Notes  \n• Except where otherwise noted, each point of these rubrics is earned independently; for example, a student could earn a point for evidence without earning a point for thesis/claim.  \n• Accuracy: The components of these rubrics require that students demonstrate historically defensible content knowledge. Given the timed nature of the exam, essays may contain errors that do not detract from their overall quality, as long as the historical content used to advance the argument is accurate.  \n• Clarity: Exam essays should be considered first drafts and thus may contain grammatical errors. Those errors will not be counted against a student unless they obscure the successful demonstration of the content knowledge, skills, and practices described below.  \nEvaluate whether Romanticism maintained a connection to the Enlightenment or challenged the Enlightenment.  \n\n| Reporting Category | Scoring Criteria |  |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Row A\u003Cbr>Thesis/Claim\u003Cbr>(0-1 points) | 0 points\u003Cbr>Does not meet the criteria for one point. | 1 point\u003Cbr>Responds to the prompt with a historically defensible thesis/claim that establishes a line of reasoning. |\n|  | Decision Rules and Scoring Notes |  |\n|  | Responses that do not earn this point:\u003Cbr>• Are not historically defensible.\u003Cbr>• Only restate or rephrase the prompt.\u003Cbr>• Do not respond to the prompt.\u003Cbr>• Do not establish a line of reasoning.\u003Cbr>• Are overgeneralized. | Responses that earn this point:\u003Cbr>The response must provide a historically defensible thesis or claim that establishes a position on a historically defensible thesis or claim that establishes a position on whether Romanticism maintained a connection to the Enlightenment or challenged the Enlightenment.
