Getting started with Rubrics

• choose 1-2 assignments to start
• consider creating a rubric for larger assessments that are time intensive to grade and may need clearer expectations (e.g. team project, final presentation, etc.)
• consider creating rubrics for assessments that repeat throughout the term (e.g. discussion forum responses)

How to Create a Rubric

• identify the assessment to use the rubric
• identify the learning outcomes to be demonstrated in this assessment - these become the evaluation criteria 
• identify the levels of achievement by which you will evaluate the demonstrated skills, knowledge

• Login to Canvas and navigate to your course
