** Designing Rubrics ** ** Effective performance assessments are made up of three elements: clearly articulated learning goals, a task that elicits a performance in relation to these learning goals, and a rubric that provides scoring criteria to evaluate the student product or performance. Last week you learned about the first two elements of successful performance assessment and used this information to conceptualize a performance task. ** This week, you will explore the characteristics of effective rubrics and how to bring students in to the assessment process by co-creating rubrics. You and your colleagues will apply your learning by designing a rubric for the Assessment Photo Album Course Project. You will also complete your performance assessment by developing a rubric that you will use to score your students’ products or performances, and you will consider how you might include students as co-creators of the rubric.
