- 31. A rubric is an explicit set of criteria used for assessing a particular type of work or performance. We use them: To produce assessments that are far more descriptive than a single, holistic grade or judgment can be. To let students know in advance what criteria will apply to assessing their work To provide a richer description of the reasons for assigning a numerical score to a piece of work. To enable multiple judges to apply the same criteria to assessing work. To enable authors to elicit formative feedback (e.g., peer critique) for drafts of their work. To help authors understand more clearly and completely what evaluators had to say about their work. To enable comparison of works across settings.

Editor's Notes
- Nearly Everyone has a physical bruise or scar .Some of us have many of them. Choose one and share the story of how you received the bruise or scar. What were you doing? Who were you with? Where were you? What happened right before you got the bruise? What happened after? How did you feel? Include as much detail as possible in one minute. Then switch with your partner and listen carefully! (Importance of listening here) – now find another pair and share your partner’s story with the other pair. Youngest to oldest here. Pick one from the group to share with everyone else. LISTEN. What did you learn about the people you shared story with? What did you learn about yourself? Why did we do this? What could the bruises and scars represent in our personal lives? Professional lives? Connect to story, sharing, relevance, personalization. RELATIONSHIPS, RIGOR, RELEVANCE, RESULTS
- IT’S NO LONGER READING, WRITING, RITHMATEC Accuracy, thoroughness, strict deadline, best work, end in mind, focused steps, structure, process, clear, consistency, internalize, continuous and repetitive, head - analyze, synthesize and express “results”, heart - compassion/empathy, hands-sweat equity, vocabulary in content, process, context (so what? who cares?), relevance. New Formula: Rigor, Relevance, Relationship, Result. Relationships KEY – if you don’t have them, nothing else works. Relevance is next! Then Rigor and Results - Explain that I will model active learning strategies that can promote rigor, relevance, relationships and results throughout
- FOR DESIGNING INSTRUCTION – when we design – we start with what – outcomes & essential questions, then we look at how will we know – evidence/assessment, then we design instruction – how we will learn.
- which of these questions matter most to your right now? Rank in order of most importance. List 1-6 on left side and then rank them 1-6.
- EXPLAIN LEARNING CHUNKS – REFORMULATE PLAN FOR THE DAY IF NEEDED
- Now write a second paragraph from the student perspective.....what do the students think they are doing? How does it connect for them? How are they keeping track of it all? What questions will they be able to answer at the end of the project? Read a partner’s How close are your descriptions – discuss in pairs
- Now reread your description and underline “What they will learn”, circle “How they will learn” and star “How we will know” Exchange with a different partner, read and discuss what you are discovering How is alignment? IF TIME AND INTEREST: One way to make this richer with students and to ensure alignment is to use essential questions to frame the work – ALLOWS YOU TO FRAME ACROSS SUBJECT AREAS/DISCIPLINES AND TO ALL WORK TOGETHER BUT THROUGH THE LENS OF YOUR SUBJECT.
- We start with what? Handout: Read and reflect: Review the EQ handout and highlight what strikes you the most, underline what confuses you and circle what you want to discuss more. Active Learning Strategy Write a few essential questions for the overall Hula Drama / Think Pair Share Active Learning Strategy/ NARROW TO 3-5 NOW WRITE FOR your own subject with this project 7 VET WITH A PARTNER OPTIONAL IF TIME: How do they match up with our school outcome? Handout DRAFT PORTRAIT SHEET and have them consider EQ’s, STRATEGIES and the evidence...... FILL IN WHAT YOU CAN FROM YOUR SUBJECT
- Share with a partner Share in the group What characteristics were present in your significant learnings? Let’s record them. What does that mean when we talk about Quality instruction versus learning… What is quality instruction? What about quality learning?
