Developing Rubrics for Assignments

Wednesday, August 11, 2021 - 9:00am to 10:00am

Would you like to use rubrics to better evaluate student work and to more efficiently provide feedback? A rubric is a scoring tool based on the criteria for evaluating the quality of student work and can be used for research reports, essays, projects, performances, and presentations. In this workshop, we will present basic guidelines for creating and using rubrics and participants will spend time developing or revising a rubric for one course assignment. In addition, we will learn tools and strategies for using rubrics to efficiently grade course assignments.
