How Do I
Create an Exemplar Card?
What is an Exemplar card?
An Exemplar card meets and exceeds requirements such as:
- The entrepreneurial mindset (EM) is explicitly integrated
- "Who, Where, When, and What" implementation details are displayed
- The idea is actionable and of interest to a broad audience
- Research-based best practices in pedagogy--if appropriate for the content--are demonstrated
Exemplar Card Rubric
For a card to be considered Exemplar, it must be peer reviewed. A minimum of 3 reviewers, typically Community Catalysts, assess the card through the Exemplar Card Rubric.
The rubric was created by the Community Catalysts in response to a highlighted need for “quality” card content. It provides a robust, in-depth look at key items the card should contain.
You can use this rubric, too, to assess your card's potential for this next level:
