Rubrics are helpful tools to provide students with clear guidelines and expected outcomes.
Your safety net is your rubric. If you decide to just use quantitative scoring and no comments, you will have nothing to fall back on when students questions your grades. You have got to use the comments!
I've learned that using rubrics will help the students and instructors have set expectations and we should also show an example of an "A" grade rather then tell them to just work really hard.
I'm curious to know whether anyone here has had complaints from asynchronous online students about group projects. Is it fair to require them to connect with one another? Is it better to give them individual grades on group activities if they are asked to work together?
I'd love to see some examples, particularly from ENG teachers of active learning assignments. Thanks!
Use rubrics, provide meaningful feedback, and set the tone for clear communication. Align the rubrics with the course objectives to support student learning.
Clear instructions on what is expected are key to student success. Utilizing rubrics and providing feedback on each assignment is part of the teaching and learning process.
Encourage the attention to rubrics and how we will be grading! Explain the rubric in full prior to submission.
Rubrics may help students understand the requirements more clearly. Faculty act as facilitators in the environment.
Key elements that rubrics are beneficial for staying consistent and provides insight for student to guide them on assignments
As stated in this content, clear communication is vital for a professor. Before I begin a virtual class, I post a welcome video going over the course logistics. If the class is on campus, I post all the policies, expectations, and guidelines then spend time reviewing it during the first session. I also ask learners in all formats for their expectations and preferences. I refer to that process as a "Start of Course Survey."
I learned that rubrics are important for grading to stay consistent
I might feel uneasy at first but switching to active learning, when done correctly, can help students learn more, feel more engaged, and ultimately become better professionals.
The instructor will act as the facilitator, like the director of a movie, when using active learning techniques.
I have learned how to effectively incorporate active learning strategies and technology tools in an online course to engage students, promote participation, and facilitate meaningful learning. I plan to apply these strategies by designing low-risk, student-centered activities, using clear instructions and rubrics, and providing consistent feedback to enhance motivation and learning outcomes
Rubics are a great tool to assist the instructor with how to grade the assignments. Students are well informed prior to each assignment so that there shouldn't be any misunderstandings.
Any lesson should have a rubric that helps guide the learner to be successful.
A clear rubric for students helps guide them through the course. The rubric sets clear expectations.
Rubrics are necessary tools for evaluating results in an active learning environment , it will help the instructor and the studentes to reduce their anxiety of how they will be evaluated and what is necessary they achieve.
ive learned that rubrics are so great when having traditional learning.
I will post more rubrics for students to be clear on expected outcomes.
