The definition of the word rubric is:
a heading of a part of a book or manuscript done or
underlined in a color (as red) different from the rest
name, title, title of a statute
an authoritative rule
In education, we love to reinvent the wheel and then create a buzzword for it.
In educational jargon, the word rubric has taken on a whole new meaning. Most of us
think of a rubric as a chart with Performance levels across the top in columns and
Objectives or standards in the rows going down the side. We have a nice template
you can use.
Creating rubrics for classroom instruction and assessment is a process.
If you involve your students in the process you are on your way to developing what
is called authentic assessment. See some of the links above to find sites that explain
the process of rubric development.
