  1. Scoring Rubrics

  2. Basics of Scoring Rubric • A scoring rubric means "a standard of performance for a defined population". • A scoring rubric is an attempt to communicate expectations of quality around a task. • A scoring rubric allows teachers and students alike to evaluate criteria, which can be complex and subjective. • Since the 1980s, many scoring rubrics have been presented in a graphic format, typically as a grid.

  3. Common features of scoring 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 either the developmental sophistication of the strategy used or the degree to which a standard has been met.

  4. Components of a scoring rubric • Dimensions are generally referred to as criteria • The rating scale as levels • Definitions as descriptors

  5. Here is a seven-step method to creating and using a scoring rubric for writing assignments: • Have students look at models of good versus "not-so-good" work. A teacher could provide sample assignments of variable quality for students to review. • List the criteria to be used in the scoring rubric and allow for discussion of what counts as quality work. • Articulate gradations of quality. These hierarchical categories should concisely describe the levels of quality (ranging from bad to good) or development (ranging from beginning to mastery). • Practice on models. Students can test the scoring rubrics on sample assignments provided by the instructor. • Ask for self and peer-assessment. • Revise the work on the basis of that feedback. As students are working on their assignment, they can be stopped occasionally to do a self-assessment and then give and receive evaluations from their peers. Revisions should be based on the feedback they receive. • Use teacher assessment, which means using the same scoring rubric the students used to assess their work.

  6. Issues about Scoring Rubrics • One problem with scoring rubrics is that each level of fulfillment encompasses a wide range of marks. For example, if two students both receive a 'level four' mark on the Ontario system, one might receive an 80% and the other 100%.
