Designing and Developing Grading Rubrics
Description
In this workshop, participants will learn to develop rubrics that can communicate expectations to students and help to facilitate grading. Rubrics can reduce the amount of time faculty spend writing feedback, and at the same time facilitate in making evaluation accurate. This rubrics workshop will assist participants in constructing and using scoring rubrics for instruction and evaluation purposes.
Rubrics can be a useful tool for evaluating open-ended activities, written assignments, projects, and collaborative work.
