Craig,

I look at online rubric makers many times to get ideas for criteria and to think about different categories to use in rubrics. It is nice to see how others set up rubrics. Thanks for your input.

Roger
I didn't know of all the resources available either. If anything you could select rubrics that come close to what you are intending for your course and use them as a starting point to create what would work for you. When I developed my rubric, I really didn't know what a rubric was never mind how to develop one. These sites and this course will certainly help me as I work on improving mine.

Thanks for the info.

Hello

I have never had to develop rubrics but I came acrossed some great websites that I saved to my favorites through this course. I will be looking to generate some rubrics through Rubricstar and the Rubric Gallery. I really appriciate you sharing these with us. I am sure I would be able to also google a few.

BRIGITTE ,

Great. Do look at some good examples and craft your own. Don't forget to review and revise your rubrics after you use them to make sure they are measuring what you epwant them to measure. Thanks.

Marie,

The more you use rubrics and the more you look at examples, the better you will become. It takes some time. Keep moving forward. You will be rewarded.

There is a lot of different resources on the web that can help with building a rubrics, but sometimes it is better for look for rubrics from other institutions and then create one by using that one to meet the needs of what you are trying to accomplish with the particular assignment or discussion.

You need to know which type of rubrics is required in order to meet what you are trying to accomplish and we also need to make sure that it consists of the proper contents that are needed in a good rubrics.

Hi Roger,

It is good to see the number of rubrics that are available online. We need to know which type of rubrics we feel is the best thing for our particular school. We can even use bits and pieces from a couple of them to create a great rubrics.

Patricia

Patricia,

I always ask others in the field if they will share their rubrics with me and also check the Internet to see if there are other criteria I may be missing. It's good to share with others. Thanks for your input.

Patricia and Roger,

Thanks for continuing the conversation. The type of rubric you use is important. Thanks for bringing this up again.

You can "Google" online rubrics to get some samples. Many will come up, then you can choose one that best fits your needs, and develop one similar to the sample to assess your assignment or work.

Dori,

Yes, and Rubistar will provide additional examples. I look at pre-made rubrics just to see if I can fine turn my criteria or if there are categories that I may have forgotten. We must review our rubrics and make sure they are measuring what we want them to measure. Thanks!

Thanks Roger, this is good information. I too have never looked to the web for rubrics. It is interesting that so many would be out there.

Dr Crews,
I have never given much thought to going to the internet to search for rubrics, but upon doing a goggle search I found more then I could ever hope to use. I must admit, I am a little unsure about using google when it comes to doing academic work/research. I always tell my students not to use goggle when doing research. Rather, they should be using the library becasue it is more focused on academics. What do you think?

Dale,

Just because you find something online (such as a rubric) does not mean you have to use it verbatim. You can get an idea of categories, criteria, etc., but tweak it to meet your needs and connect them to the objectives. You're not doing "research" per se, but getting ideas for rubrics you will create yourself. Hope this helps.

Dale,

There is a ton of information out there. Rubistar is a great place to look as well.

Thanks!

I have never used any online resources to develop my rubrics. After taking this course I am going to take a look at the resources out there. I believe they will help me develop better rubrics for my students.

Prior to taking this course I always searched the internet for an idea of rubrics that would suit my discipline and type of assignment. I rarely use any one rubric but often find characteristics that I like in several of the rubrics I review and then I add elements that I feel are important to clearly demonstrate a student's competency with the material. I am very interested in checking out Rcampus Rubric Gallery to see what types of rubric template that site has to offer.

Traci,

Great. Glad you are trying new things. We can learn a lot by researching and seeing what others do through their resources. Thanks!

Sharon,

We learn a lot from each other in these forums and searching the Internet for various resources. Nice job.

The internet is a great tool in developing rubrics, there is a program called rubistar for developing them. Also, there are a lot of places that have free information for a rubric for the course
