The metarubric is a useful quantitative tool for systematically evaluating the rubric, which is something I had not heard of before, but makes perfect sense.
When creating a rubric its beneficial to get the students involved in the process.
If the assignment attached to the course, in the rubric, can you account for due dates of assignments? Can you account for word count also? In our RAD discussions we instruct the students that the initial post needs to be posted by 3rd day and 2 responses to peers on the 7th day. Do any other programs do this? Also, can the rubric take into account for grammar, punctuation, etc? Or are rubrics geared more for just the content material?
I look forward to your responses.

The essance, if not components, of a metarubric can be a lens for any assessment or scoring, even an MC test.
The benefits and use of a metarubric. I have struggled with what they versus what I understand from the rubric. This will help.
There are many compenents to consider when developing a rubic. All components are crucial as to how the student process and receives the feedback as well as to how they will apply it moving forward in their learning process.
I will use this course in making changes to the rubric. I think clarity is so important for contributing to the student's success.
Megarubric is a term I was not familiar with. A new tool in my toolbox.
For rubrics to be effective, student involvement is critical.

Evaluating Rubrics. Whether you create your own rubric or adapt one, you should review the finished product to evaluate its overall quality.
Clarity of rubrics are essential to the learning environment.
Involving students in the development of rubrics is particularly useful when they are involved in project-based learning.
La metarúbrica es una herramienta destinada a evaluar rúbricas. Lograr la participación de los estudiantes en la producción de rúbricas les ayuda a comprender mejor la tarea y los resultados del aprendizaje.
The best way to evaluate rubrics is to first explain them to students. If it is new to me, it is new to them. I would also encourage students to use the rubric to plan their work, and then as a review tool before submission. As a professor, I would also not assume they will know how to do that.
Understanding the differences between descriptive and evaluative feedback is useful infomation
metarubrics evaluate multiple rubrics for clarity and criteria.
