Grading Rubric for Discussion
Think of this discussion as the equivalent of your participation in a face-to-face class. The icebreaker discussion will be graded on a scale of 1 – 10 using the following criteria.
In social circles, it’s widely known that I’m an avid traveler and a self-professed food enthusiast. My Instagram feed is a virtual travelogue of my journeys, from the bustling streets of Tokyo to the serene beaches of Bali. Friends often consult me for travel recommendations, trusting my knack for finding hidden gems and authentic local experiences. Equally, my passion for gastronomy is evident in my animated discussions about exotic cuisines and culinary experiments I attempt at home. These two aspects of my identity have become defining features in conversations, shaping the way others perceive me.
However, there’s a lesser-known facet to my life – my interest in astrophysics. Only a handful of people are aware of my fascination with the cosmos and the hours I spend reading about black holes, quantum mechanics, and the nature of time. This hidden passion often surprises those who associate me primarily with my travel escapades and food escapades. Exploring the mysteries of the universe through physics gives me a sense of intellectual grounding and fuels my curiosity about the world beyond our planet.
I would like my classmates to know that beyond my hobbies and interests lies a genuine passion for environmental sustainability. As a firm believer in the urgency of addressing climate change, I’ve actively engaged in local initiatives to raise awareness about eco-friendly practices. From volunteering in community clean-up events to promoting recycling and reduced plastic use, I strive to contribute positively to the planet. Combining my love for travel with sustainable practices, I’ve embarked on eco-conscious journeys, sharing insights on how to explore the world responsibly. I believe that together, we can make a meaningful impact on the environment, and I’m excited to exchange ideas and collaborate with my classmates on this crucial issue.
Hey [Classmate’s Name],
I found your icebreaker post really interesting! It’s fascinating to learn about your passion for astrophysics – it’s such a unique and thought-provoking field. I can totally relate to having those hidden interests that might surprise people who know us more for our outward hobbies. It’s inspiring to see how you balance your love for travel and food with a genuine commitment to environmental sustainability. I think your perspective on responsible travel and eco-conscious living will be a valuable contribution to our discussions in this class. Looking forward to connecting more throughout the course!
