    Rubric Development

    Definition and Purpose

    • A rubric is a scoring guide used to assess student learning and performance
    • It outlines the criteria and standards for evaluating student work, providing a clear understanding of what is expected
    • Rubrics help to:
      • Clarify expectations for students
      • Improve the quality of student work
      • Facilitate fair and consistent grading
      • Provide feedback to students

    Types of Rubrics

    • Holistic rubric: Evaluates student work as a whole, using a single score or rating
    • Analytic rubric: Breaks down student work into components, evaluating each component separately
    • Developmental rubric: Assesses student progress over time, focusing on growth and improvement

    Characteristics of Effective Rubrics

    • Clear and concise language: Easy to understand and interpret
    • Specific and measurable criteria: Clearly defines what is expected
    • Consistent and fair: Applies equally to all students
    • Relevant and aligned: Ties to learning objectives and outcomes
    • Flexible and adaptable: Can be modified to suit different contexts and assignments

    Steps for Developing a Rubric

    1. Identify the learning objectives: Determine what students are expected to learn
    2. Determine the criteria: Decide what aspects of student work will be evaluated
    3. Establish the standards: Define the levels of performance (e.g., excellent, good, fair, poor)
    4. Create the rubric: Organize the criteria and standards into a clear and concise format
    5. Test and refine: Pilot-test the rubric and make adjustments as needed
