Mistakes in Making Rubrics

Dr. Christopher, Yes, we can at times try to make them very detailed and some times they become too confusing. We have to review them as well to make sure we don't forget key items. Thanks!

Advantages of Rubrics

Dr. Christopher, The fact that students further understand the expectations through the rubric is a good thing. Rubrics don't have to tell students exactly what to do, but guide. It's OK to guide. ;-)

Rubric Role

Michael, Yes, and that clear delineation is important to the students and the instructor. I like the word "precious" when you are describing their time. Nice job.

Matt, I agree, they do have multiple roles. And, it's so nice that one tool can help the students and the instructor in such great ways. Nice job.

Pattern of Communication

Michael, Yes, and every class has a different "norm." Letting the students know what to expect is key. Thanks!

Pattern of Communication

Aundrea, The consistency and substance you refer to help build that "pattern." That's the best road map you can provide. Thanks!

Technology Communication Tools

Michael, Absolutely. We have to know where they are when they start so we know what we need to do. I always put the technical expectations in the syllabus too.
