In this episode we talk about rubrics, not just as an assessment tool, but also as a way to help students grow in proficiency.
I’m joined by Beckie Bray Rankin, a high school French Teacher in Massachusetts, who has presented widely on the topic of rubrics…or, as she refers to them, the “thingamabob that does the job.”
Beckie talks about:
- what pre-rubric teaching was like
- how she discovered rubrics (or rediscovered)
- the benefits of rubrics for students and teachers
- rubrics and IPA’s
- the Learn -Practice -Assess -Reflect cycle
- how a rubric is never really “done” and what she continues to work on
