  1. Academic QualityHow do you measure up? Rubrics

  2. Levels • Basic • Effective • Exemplary

  3. Levels of Quality • Basic – We consider EACH of the elements in the “Basic” column to be necessary for every course. Be sure your course includes each of these items. If you are unclear about how to achieve any of these items, contact your department chairperson.

  4. 2. Effective – We consider the elements in the “Effective” level to be ones that most “effective” course should include and that most instructors should achieve. You should try to include at least 80% of the items in the “Effective” column. (Count the items you have achieved, and divide them by the number of items in the column to see if you have achieved 80% of the elements.)

  5. 3. Exemplary – We would like to challenge all faculty members to build their courses into “Exemplary” courses by striving to include the elements described in the “Exemplary” level. While not all items will apply to all courses, you should try to include at least 80% of the items in the “Exemplary” column to be considered an “Exemplary” instructor.

  9. Interactive Rubrics In Service Pack 6, Blackboard added new “Clickable” interactive rubrics. A rubric is a tool that lists evaluation criteria for an assignment.
