Identification of concepts	Map identifies the important concepts related to action research and provides evidence of understanding of knowledge domain on multiple levels.	Map includes most important concepts related to action research and provides evidence of understanding knowledge domain on some levels.	Map includes some of the Important concepts related to action research providing evidence of understanding knowledge domain on limited or one domain.	Map includes few concepts related to action research with most important concepts missing and limited or non-existent evidence of understanding knowledge domain.
Interconnectivity among concepts	Evidence of understanding relationships and how all concepts related to action research are interlinked with many other concepts.	Evidence of understanding of most relationships and how most concepts related to action research are interlinked with other concepts.	Evidence of understanding of some relationships and how some concepts related to action research are linked to other concepts.	Evidence of understanding of few relationships and how limited number of concepts related to action research are linked to other concepts.
Descriptive connectivity of links	Succinct and accurate description of all relationships related to action research concepts through links.	Proficient and mostly accurate description of most relationships related to action research concepts through most links.	Often clear and sometimes accurate description of some relationships related to action research concepts through some of the links.	Vague and partially accurate description of most relationships related to action research concepts through most of the links.
Efficiency of links	Each link is distinct from all others, concisely describes relationship related to action research concepts and is used consistently throughout the map.	Most links are distinct from others, considerably describe most relationships related to action research concepts, and is used mostly consistently throughout the map.	Some links are distinct from others, moderately describe some relationships related to action research concepts, and are used with some or limited consistency throughout the map.	Most links are not distinct but rather synonymous to each other, describe vaguely any relationships related to action research concepts, and are used with no consistency throughout the map.
Evidence of hierarchical organization and use of examples	All concepts are organized hierarchically with clarity and with extensive number of relevant examples related to action research and links.	Most concepts are organized in hierarchical order with considerable clarity and with substantial number of examples related to action research and links provided.	Some concepts are organized in hierarchical order with fair with moderate number of examples related to action research and links.	Limited concepts are organized hierarchical or none at all, and there is a limited number of examples related to action research and links provided.
Critical thinking and communication	Map provides evidence of complex and sophisticated critical thinking; most appropriate selection of type of concept map that allows for exceptional level of understanding related to action research.	Map provides some evidence of mostly complex and substantial critical thinking; appropriate selection of concept map that allows for proficient level of understanding related to action research.	Map provides evidence of moderate critical thinking; the concept map selected allows for moderate level of understanding related to action research.	Map provides evidence of limited critical thinking; the type of concept map allows for basic level of understanding related to action research.
