3.3.2. DEFINITIONS

  • Rubric. A rubric is an assessment tool used for criteria-based assessment and considering performance levels. It can be used for marking any kind of students’ performance element, from class participation to assignments, and despite its format, from written to oral to visual.
  • Holistic rubrics. This type of rubrics is general in scope and addresses different assessment criteria (e.g., clarity, organisation, and mechanics) at the same time in a single scale of performance levels, based on an overall judgement of the student work.
  • Analytic rubrics. These rubrics are two-dimensional, encompassing assessment criteria (one in each row) and performance levels (one in each column), and allow for different weightings for different components.
