Rubrics For Education

Recommendations for Rubric Construction

Divide overall task into distinct subtasks that evidence student skills or comprehension/application of knowledge.
Identify both cognitive and performance components that can be assessed.
Determine whether qualitative or quantitative descriptors are going to be for each subtask- this may be influence by the purpose of the assessment ie: primarily for student feedback or for incorporating into a numerical average.
Allow for full range of skill/knowledge with clear indicators of each level of performance.
Use rubric for an evaluation of an presentation or activity.
Revise rubric as necessary.
