I am going to start using resources to help me build rubrics.
There is no one way to develop a rubric. The rubric can be developed using a multitude of resources that speak directly to what it is that is needed.
I did not realize that there are so many rubric/assessment options. This section revealed five of them to me: Alternative Assessment, Analytic Rubrics, Holistic Rubrics, Formative Assessment, and Summative Assessment.
There should be a holistic approach to creating rubrics with regard to the test or benchmark it is referencing.
It is important to review your rubric to make sure it performs the way you want it to.
Evaluating your rubrics for effectiveness is essential before you actually use it; however, I have found situations occur that throw a curve ball into the use. I wait to release grades until I have graded all students for fairness and consistency across the board. Sometimes I am actually lenient to the first students to help me not to be too strict in my assessments.
Rubrics should be clear and you can find examples on the internet
I was unaware there are websites you can access for rubrics. I plan to research that a bit more:)
To build and create rubrics you need to determine the purpose of the assignment, establish clear criteria, determine the scoring method/sheet, and describe descriptors. And lastly, while creating rubrics we have to be sensitive to the language used.

Rubrics should be made fair and weighted reasonably for the components of the assignments.
Las rúbricas se componen de una escala con descriptores y criterios. También pueden incluirse estándares e indicadores. Una escala indica los puntos que se asignarán al calificar la calidad de un trabajo.
larity within a rubric should help describe the dimensions of performance in sufficient detail so that two raters who understand the rubric in the same way would evaluate a particular performance or product in the same way.
One must be careful in creating a reliable, concise, and unbiased rubric to ensure students have the ability to grow.
A rubric is a scoring guide used to evaluate performance, a product, or a project.
It is important that a rubric demonstrate fairness for all types of learners, without racial, cultural, gender, or other biases
Develop fair, reliable, and accurate rubrics
The backward approach to designing the rubrics is helpful to me. Need to define the end state and then develope the criteria.
Provided wonderful websites for developing rubrics with tips to make sure the rubric can be edited.
A well written rubric should calibrate grading between those evaluating the work. I will take this information and evaluate and improve the rubric I am currently using:)
