Rubrics

According to McTighe and Wiggins, 2004 in // Understanding by Design //, a rubric is a scoring guide that enables judges to make reliable judgments about student work and for students to self-assess. A rubric is based on a continuum of performance quality built upon a scale of different score points to be assigned; identifies the key traits or dimensions to be examined and assessed; and provides key features of performance for each level of scoring (descriptors) which signify the degree to which the criteria have been met. It is very versatile tool to assess performance.
