Why should you use a rubric? A rubric not only shows students what they need to do to be successful in an assessment, but rubrics also present a means of evaluation that reduces subjective grading by providing specific and detailed criteria. By presenting a detailed and consistent breakdown of what is expected at various levels of performance, educ...
In some instances, rubrics may not be the ideal evaluation tool. Some assessments require a “did” or “did not”, complete or incomplete approach. In these cases, a checklist can not only be useful in supporting objective evaluation, but can also provide students with the specific assessment elements or tasks you are looking for – very much like a ru...
Rating scales combine the simplicity of a checklist with the more specific level of achievement of a rubric. A rating scale indicates how well a student performed on a specific element of an assessment or task, based on expected outcomes, but lacks the granularity of performance descriptors. As such, rating scales are an excellent tool for self-ass...

- Frequency Scales. Understanding how often people perform (or think they perform) actions helps when product planning as in the example below. When listing the frequency of actions, consider both specific number of times (e.g.

A checklist is the least complex form of scoring that examines the presence or absence of specific elements in the product of a performance. All elements are generally weighted the same and the gradations in quality are typically not recognized.
Checklists and rating scales. Checklists contain a list of required criteria and space for an assessor to indicate whether or not students met those criteria. Unlike rating scales or rubrics, checklists are generally binary: Either the criterion was met or not.
