What is a Rubric and Why is it Important?
A Rubric is "a scoring tool that lists the criteria for a piece of work or 'what counts'" (What) according to Rubric expert Heidi Goodrich. Basically, it is a guide that lists the different criteria a student must achieve in order to receive a specific grade. A Rubric not only allows the teacher to grade everybody's work efficiently and without bias, it also allows the student to see how they will be graded and where they stand. Advantages in Rubrics are that they are "reusable, gives the students explicit guidelines, and helps to develop students learning abilities" (Advantages).
Types of Rubrics
There are four types of rubrics.
- Analytical
- Assigns a level or grade to each criterion (Mueller)
