This special report features 12 articles from Online
Classroom that will cause you to examine your current methods of online
assessment, and perhaps add something new to your assessment toolbox. It even
talks about some of the common assessment mistakes you’ll want to avoid.
There are two types of
rubrics: holistic and analytic (see Figure 1). A holistic rubric requires
the teacher to score the overall process or product as a whole, without judging
the component parts separately (Nitko, 2001). In contrast, with an analytic
rubric, the teacher scores separate, individual parts of the product or
performance first, then sums the individual scores to obtain a total score
(Moskal, 2000; Nitko, 2001).
The single point rubric is
an ethical tool to assist students with their responsibilities of goal setting
and self-assessment of their own education. In this article, I describe key
features of the single point rubric, how it is used, and how it is different
from traditional multiple point rubrics. I also share some benefits of using
single point rubrics along with suggestions of how to address concerns. Two
sample, single point rubrics are provided.
