3. RUBRICS: STRUCTURES AND FUNCTIONS
Rubrics: DEFINITION
“Rubrics are performance-based assessments that evaluate student performance on any given task or set of tasks that ultimately leads to a final product, or learning outcome.” (Why Use Rubrics, 2011)

4. RUBRICS: STRUCTURES AND FUNCTIONS
Structural Components:
Parts
SCALE
Possible points for varying degrees of mastery or quality
CRITERIA
Dimensions of product being evaluated
DESCRIPTORS
Assess each of the dimensions corresponding to each scale

5. RUBRICS: STRUCTURES AND FUNCTIONS
Structural Components
Types of Rubrics/Types of Scales
ANALYTICAL
HOLISTIC
List the criteria on a grid.
Shows the level of proficiency at the top.
Each criterion tells the focus of assessment.
List the expectations.
Rate different levels of proficiency.
Produces a single rating (over-all ranking).

6. RUBRICS: STRUCTURES AND FUNCTIONS
DEVELOPMENTAL
Focus on the strengths and weaknesses of student work and help direct student growth
Act as a critique
Self-evaluation
Less threatening to students and can be used as a peer evaluation

7. RUBRICS: STRUCTURES AND FUNCTIONS
SUMMATIVE
Focus on evaluating student products and performances
Give a quantitative measure
These rubrics have a scored rating scale, which can be converted into a grade

8. USING RUBRICS FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES
Roles of Rubrics in Teaching and Learning
Student’s Self Evaluation
Peer Evaluation
Teacher Assessment
Guided or Standard Rating
Performance-based Assessment

9. USING RUBRICS FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES
Roles of Rubrics
in Assessment
Assessment is a process of information gathering about the characteristics of learners through tests or tasks.
Teachers can evaluate or assess student performance or proficiency in any given task
Provide valuable information about the degree to which a student has achieved a defined learning outcome

10. USING RUBRICS FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES
Performance-based
Assessment
At times, performance-based assessment has been used interchangeably with "authentic assessment" and "alternative assessment."”
Performance-based tasks require performance-based assessments in which the actual student performance is assessed through a product, such as a completed project or work that demonstrates levels of task achievement.

11. Technical Requirements of Rubrics

Technical Requirements
of Rubrics
Continuity of Descriptors
Parallel Descriptors
Coherent Criteria
Focused Criteria
Reliable
Satisfied Features

12. CREATING RUBRICS Features of Rubrics
Focus on measuring a stated objective (performance, behavior or quality)
Use a range to rate performance
Contain specific performance characteristics arranged in levels indicating the degree to which a standard has been met

13. CREATING RUBRICS Characteristics of Effective Rubrics
Reflect the most significant elements related to success in a learning task.
Enable students and teachers to accurately and consistently identify the level of competency or stage of development.
Help teachers grade students' work more accurately and fairly.

14. CREATING RUBRICS Characteristics of Effective Rubrics
Encourage students' self-evaluation and higher expectations.
Are shared with students prior to beginning the task so they know the characteristics of quality work.
Provide more information than just a narrow checklist of skills and attributes.

15. CREATING RUBRICS General Tips on Creating Rubrics
Determine desired learning outcomes or educational objectives.
List the criteria to be used in the rubric and allow for discussion of what counts as quality work.
Ask for self and peer-assessment.
Practice on models. Students can test the rubrics on sample assignments provided by the instructor.
Articulate gradations of quality.
Revise the work based on that feedback
Use teacher assessment, which means using the same rubric the students used to assess their work.
