Rating Scale
Are similar to checklists but differ in that they allow the observer to judge performance along a continuum rather than as a dichotomy.
Come in three types: * * Numerical * Graphic * Descriptive
Designed to determine: * * to what degree? * how often does this student act this way? * exhibit this characteristic? * demonstrate this skill?
Rubrics
* Rubrics are clear sets of expectations or criteria used to help teachers and students focus on what is valued in a subject, activity, topic… * A category describes a student’s performance as closely as possible, but not completely describes overall performance because
