Useful information: use of rubrics to evaluate rubrics (meta rubrics)—great for calibration sessions with instructors. 

Examples on internet, LMS, AI, along with sites. How to design good and fair rubrics.

Moving away from using numbers in rubric. Including self assessments for the student. Designing clear criteria. The value of rubrics and common mistakes when designing rubrics. All of these areas I found useful.

Advantages and disadvantages of rubric use. Different types of rubrics and their uses. Always making rubrics accessible to the student prior to starting the project.

The rubric serves as a foundation for the assignment, and we have to be careful not to overload it with information.

The rubric sets clear expectations and allows for feedback.

I learned that diagnostic, formative, and summative assessments each serve a distinct purpose, and when they’re used together intentionally, they create a complete picture of student learning rather than just a final score.  These assessments help identify students’ prior knowledge, strengths, and gaps before instruction begins.   I realized how powerful they are for preventing learning struggles instead of reacting to them later.  This module emphasized that formative assessment is not a single event, it’s an ongoing process.   Tools like exit tickets, questioning strategies, and quick checks allow teachers to adjust instruction in real time.  Summative assessment Summative assessments measure mastery… >>>

I learned that technology doesn’t just make assessment faster, it makes it smarter.  Tools like digital quizzes, interactive platforms, analytics dashboards, and formative feedback apps help teachers understand learning in real time and adjust instruction more intentionally.

Digital formative assessment tools Platforms such as Google Forms, Kahoot, Quizizz, and EdPuzzle allow quick checks for understanding and provide instant feedback.  The biggest insight was how these tools reveal misconceptions immediately rather than after a unit test.  Learning analytics Dashboards and reporting tools highlight patterns, who is struggling, which concepts need reteaching, and how engagement shifts over time.  Data becomes actionable instead… >>>

Rubric's offer a clear understanding of student expectations 

Comparing student's Norm-referenced assessments which are used to compare the skills of others within a particular group helps gage whether or not individual delivery methods need to be adjusted if a student is following below the average or misunderstanding critical course content.
