Scoring Rubric
Definition
A scoring rubric is a set of criteria or guidelines used by teachers or examiners to evaluate and assign scores or grades to student work. It provides clear expectations for what constitutes high-quality performance on an assignment.
Analogy
Imagine a recipe card with step-by-step instructions for baking cookies. Just like how the recipe card guides you through each stage of the baking process and helps you determine if your cookies turned out well, a scoring rubric guides teachers in evaluating student work based on specific criteria.
