CBC Highlights: What are Assessment Rubrics?
A rubric typically consists of a set of criteria or dimensions that define different levels of achievement or proficiency. Each criterion represents a specific aspect or skill that is being evaluated. Under each criterion, there are descriptors or levels that describe the quality or performance expected at different stages. These levels are often represented by a scale, such as numbers (e.g., 1-10) or descriptive terms such as poor, fair, good, excellent, below expectations and so on.
