A rubric is a tool used to assess student performance on assignments and provide feedback. It defines the expectations and objectives of the assignment and describes what constitutes high quality performance. Developing rubrics with students helps them understand what is expected of their work. Using rubrics provides specific feedback and makes grading more consistent and objective. It also helps students understand how to improve by focusing on the objectives. There are different types of rubrics such as numeric scales and qualitative descriptions. Regardless of the type, rubrics should clearly define the performance levels so students understand how their work will be evaluated.
This document discusses evaluation rubrics and provides guidance on how to create them. It defines a rubric as a set of criteria used to evaluate student work. It emphasizes that rubrics should clearly define performance levels and provide students with clear feedback. The document then provides examples of different rubric formats and discusses how to design rubrics, including identifying important evaluation categories and defining different performance levels for each category. It also provides tips on using rubrics to grade student work.

While progressive education waned in popularity in the 1950s, many of its values and approaches saw a resurgence in the 1960s and continue to influence education today.

In an education system, it is understood that assessment is only for the students, but on the other hand, the Assessment of teachers is also an important aspect of the education system that ensures teachers are providing high-quality instruction to students. The assessment process can be used to provide feedback and support for professional development, to inform decisions about teacher retention or promotion, or to evaluate teacher effectiveness for accountability purposes.
A workshop hosted by the South African Journal of Science aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers with little or no experience in writing and publishing journal articles.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
