Sample of a graded rubric

A rubric is a scoring tool for subjective grading.

Use our Rubric Studio in conjunction with our Course Management System to build rubrics, assess student coursework and other objects using rubrics, grade student work and report it back to them, and engage in collaborative assessment with rubrics.

What is a rubric

A rubric is a scoring tool that's generally used for subjective and authentic assessments. In subjective assessments, rubrics help create a certain level of objectivity. As a result, learners are more clear about the expectations prior to assessment and are clear about their areas of weakness and strength after the assessment. In authentic assessments (which are usually subjective), rubrics help educators communicate and assess levels of performance.

Benefits of rubrics

  • Clarify constraints with students, colleagues, other evaluators, administrators, and yourself.
  • Communicate expectations with students: A rubric tells students what is expected of them, the grading criteria, what counts and what doesn't, how many points they will earn for each task, and how their work is graded.
  • Bring objectivity to subjective scoring.
  • Easy scoring and recording of it.
  • Communicate grades with students: A graded rubric helps students understand how they were graded and what their areas of strength and weakness are.
