Ready Made Rubric Assessment Tools for Performance Task

What is a rubric?

A Rubric Assessment Tool is an assessment tool, usually in the form of a matrix or grid,  that clearly indicates achievement criteria across all the components of any kind of student work, from written to oral to visual. Rubrics are sometimes called "criteria sheets", "grading schemes", or "scoring guides". It can be used for marking assignments, class participation, or overall grades.

There are two types of rubrics: holistic and analytic.

Holistic rubrics

Holistic rubrics group several different assessment criteria and classify them together under grade headings or achievement levels.

Analytic rubrics

Analytic rubrics separate different assessment criteria and address them comprehensively. In a horizontal assessment rubric, the top axis includes values that can be expressed either numerically or by letter grade, or a scale from Exceptional to Poor (or Professional to Amateur, and so on). The side axis includes the assessment criteria for each component. Analytic rubrics can also permit different weightings for different components.

Here are examples of Ready made Rubric Assessment Tools that you can use in assessing the Performance Task you give to your learners.
