Mistakes in Making Rubrics

Bennett, It is true that clarity of expectaions can be difficult. I find it helpful to include the learning outcome(s) in the rubric as well to help tie it all together.

Rubric Role

Sandra, right on. Rubrics help both the students and the instuctor. I also ask students to evaluate their own work and their peer's work using the same rubric. They seem to understand the requirements more fully when they do that. Thanks for your input.

Lanny, I like your "C" words: consistency and clarity. These two words sum it up nicely. When thinking about communicating in general these are essential. Thanks for your input.

Technology Communication Tools

Lanny, Audience analysis, technical requirements, and communication are essential. Asking the audience questions to assess their knowledge is excellent. It's a kind of disgnostic assessment that is easy to do. Thanks for sharing.
