WHAT IS A RUBRIC?A rubric is a scoring guide that helps teachers evaluate student performance, based on a range of criteria. A rubric lists the criteria, or characteristics, that student work should exhibit and describes specific quality levels for those criteria.

WHY DEVELOP A RUBRIC?How easy is it for you to justify the assessment or grade you have assigned to student if you had to defend it?
Would you and other people say that the grading of your students' work or performance behavior is always accomplished objectively or subjectively?
How clear are the assessment criteria you establish for each course you teach?
When do you share a rubric with your students?
REASONS FOR USING RUBRICS
To focus instruction---intentionally.
To guide feedback---descriptively.
To characterize desired results---objectively.
To operationalize performance standards (quality)---purposefully.
To develop self-assessment competence---constantly.
To involve students---thoughtfully.
To quantify quality
QUESTIONS ANSWERED BY RUBRICS
• By what criteria will the work be judged?
• What is the difference between good work and weaker work?
• How can we make sure our judgments (or scores) are valid and reliable?
• How can both performers and judges focus their preparation on excellence?
HOW DO RUBRICS RELATE TO ASSESSMENT?
• Authentic assessment is aimed at student performance of "real-world" tasks.
• Authentic assessment measures how well students use knowledge and skills in a real context or for an authentic task: write a report, make a presentation, design an experiment, or solve a performance task.
• Authentic assessment focuses on the ability of the student to apply learning, not to memorize information or take tests.
CREATING A RUBRIC1. Define the purpose and
goals of your assignment2. Choose your rubric type3. Define the criteria4. Design the rating scale5. Write the descriptors for
each scale point

STEP 1: DEFINE THE PURPOSE OF THE LEARNING TASK
Will you use the rubric to assign a grade?Will you use the rubric to give feedback so students can improve their performance?Is the rubric for a multi-dimensional project or for a simple, straight-forward assignment?What are the learning outcomes?How will students demonstrate they've learned these outcomes?
MAKING APPLE PIE PURPOSECourse Project: Making Apple Pie
The purpose of our course project is to assess student cooking skills mid-way through a cooking course. We want to give students feedback on cooking skills such as: following a recipe and making any necessary adjustments; preparing a variety of ingredients; and following instructions and making adjustments so the food is cooked evenly throughout. Baking an apple pie requires each of these skills and is the task chosen for this assessment.What is the purpose of your rubric?
STEP 2: CHOOSE YOUR RUBRIC TYPE
Analytic Rubricsbreak down the components of a learning task, giving students feedback on each component.
each component is scored individually, and those scores are added for a total.
Holistic Rubricsprovide a broad overview of student performance and allow you to assess a learning task as a whole.
provide a single score that gives students an overall sense of their performance.
CHOOSE YOUR RUBRIC TYPE Analytic Rubrics
Holistic Rubrics
CHOOSE YOUR RUBRIC TYPEWhich type of rubric should you use? It depends on your goal.
Will you provide formative or summative feedback to your student?
Use a holistic rubric if you want to:
make a general judgment
assess a minor assignment
provide summative feedback about overall student performance on a learning task
Use a fully elaborated analytic rubric if you want to:
assess a multi-dimensional assignment
assess a major project
provide formative feedback about students' performance on individual elements of a learning task

WHICH TYPE OF RUBRIC WOULD YOU USE?
CHOOSE YOUR RUBRIC TYPE
Making Apple Pie Rubric Type
We will be using an analytic rubric for our cooking skills assessment because we want to give feedback to students, it is a multi-dimensional task with several skills to assess.
Determine your rubric type
STEP 3: DEFINE THE CRITERIARubric criteria are the individual elements of a learning task that you will judge.How do you define criteria?
By thinking about the knowledge and skills requiredWhat do I want my students to know, understand and be able to do (KUD).Task analysis – breakdown of how a task is accomplished which includes sub-tasks and both manual and mental activities
STEP 3: DEFINE THE CRITERIA
Questions to consider:What do you want students to learn from the task?How will students demonstrate that they have learned?What knowledge, skills, and behaviors are required for the task?What steps are required for the task?What are the characteristics of the final product?
STEP 3: DEFINE THE CRITERIAOnce you have an organized list, prioritize the items and eliminate those that are not important or essential. It's important that you choose criteria that reflect your instructional priorities and focus students' attention on specific elements of an assignment. Criteria should be:
Observable and measurable
Important and essential
Distinct from other criteria
Phrased in precise, unambiguous language
STEP 3: DEFINE THE CRITERIA
Making Apple Pie Criteria Example
Criteria for apple pie filling: Apples were cut and prepared correctly for even baking.
FIX THESE APPLE PIE CRITERIA

STEP 5: WRITE PERFORMANCE DESCRIPTORS FOR EACH SCALE
POINTGood descriptors:
Make sense on any scale.Describe observable and measurable behavior. Use parallel language in each point across the scale. Indicate the degree to which the standards are met.
