Taking the time to plan development of a rubric is important. Instructors need to have a clear understanding of what they want students to learn and how to evaluate learning Effectively using rubrics.
In order to help all succeed, constructive criticism between student, peers and instructors will help students judge how well they learned the material.
It is helpful for students to self assess and assess one another. This provides a deeper sense of understanding of the content, project or assignment.
student involvement, using assesments and objectives that fit the course, helps all to succeed
Rubrics are not used for the sole purpose of outlining an assignment but can be used as an assessment tool before the assignment and after. I liked the idea of peer assessments to help aid in the completion of assignments.
When creating a rubric do not add too many objectives. Eight is a good number to have.
Students can take part in the creation of the rubric.
Peer assessment can be done as the students create their 1st drafts. Once they receive the feedback they are better prepared for the instructor's feedback and are more equipped to be on target with the use of the rubric in all areas of feedback
Planning a rubric has components.
It is important to sure that student learning is assessed correctly.
