Yes, I beleive rubrics should always be used.
1. It helps you the instructor clarify what you are looking for in your own mind.
2. it create fairness and consistency from paper to paper
3. It can help you if you need to objectively justify what grade you awarded.
4. it helps the student reach clear objetives while completing projects
5. it can almost serve as an outline.
Can anyone else thing of things to add to the list?
