Finally: a post on Rubrics

Sorry folks--this has been a long time coming. I still want to write on the first week of workshops (the TA Role sessions), but am juggling time, as I'm sure you all have been too.

I did come across this link however:
http://school.discoveryeducation.com/schrockguide/assess.html

It is indeed for elementary and secondary school teaching. However, i think the concepts and principles are applicable across the board--from the youngest through to adult learners. I won't get into a discussion about the relative merits of assessment (or problems with assessing), so let me just leave this as a resource to use at your own discretion.

If anyone finds anything of particular value, please share! The one that stands out for me is the rubric-making tutorial from the Chicago public school board:
