Welcome to the Rubric Machine. Using Rubrics Learning Scenarios: Identifying “what counts” for a lesson or project You might With your students, construct a scoring rubric using the Rubric Machine. Project the Create region of the Rubric Machine on the broad (or screen) and create a rubric by working through the steps together. Decide as a group what is (or should) count as important for the lesson or project. Brainstorm a list of learning criteria together, and then refine the list down to a core set of learning criteria. Complete the rubric yourself and distribute it to students later. Be sure to review the details of the completed rubric thoroughly with students. Introduce a number of excellent and poor models of the assignment or project (e.g. an essay, a painting, a video of a dance, etc.) that you want students to learn about or do. Identify features of the models that indicate excellent and poor quality. Conduct a brainstorm to identify “what’s important to know or do” for the assignment or project you plan to teach.
