One of the more perplexing parts about teaching, beyond educating, is evaluating what students have learned. As I learn the various ins and outs of becoming a teacher, it's reassuring to know that others have come before more, faced with the same questions and concerns. As a result, there is a huge plethora of knowledge and tools at my disposal.
The rubric is a wonderful tool that allows me to clarify the goals of my lesson plan. By outlining what I want to see from a student's work, I am able to organize my own thoughts. This ensures that I have a comprehensive lesson plan that will help my students to achieve their academic goals while at the same time, it gives me a tool to assess the achievement and progress of each student. Furthermore, the rubric gives students a clear and concise reference for what my expectations are for their work. This ensures that there is no lapse in communication.
Considering the time constrictions all teachers face, whenever we can save time it's a blessing. For this reason the rubric building tool online is a lifesaver. With the pre generated rubric templates I am able to build a rubric that fits my needs in a fraction of the time.
