Hi John: Tools like spreadsheets can be helpful in organizing the variety of skills or learning points that occurred in a class. This could be one method that all students are measured using the same criteria which would be good in assuring fairness in your assessment. One consideration is to determine whether the entire checklist points are weighed the same or do some points have greater value (weight). Of course, that is going to vary tremendously from teacher to teacher and class topic. Regards, Barry
