Creating Rubrics to Assess Learning
One of the artifacts I chose to highlight was the creation of rubrics. During this course we had to create two rubrics. One rubric to Evaluate Collaborative Web Tools and another to Assess a Collaborative Task.
The thought of creating rubrics did not fill me with warm fuzzy feelings. I found this to be one of the most difficult activities of the course. But, I know how I am. The activity I usually dread the most is the one that I usually learn the most from. Well, I was right. Creating rubrics has shown me that I can assess my students on their learning journey. Our students should not only be assessed using the traditional paper and pencil assessments at the end of a unit, they should be assessed on their performance to help them learn the material as well. My Collaborative Web Tools in Education course has helped me take my 1st grade class into a different era of assessment.
Yes, creating rubrics can be time consuming, but creating rubrics forces teachers to evaluate what we want our students to learn. Since creating my first rubric for Evaluating Collaborative Web Tools, I have created other rubrics outside of my Educational Technology course to help me assess learning in more authentic ways. I still have a lot of growing to do with the creation of rubrics. I think that some of my rubrics are to overwhelming, but I am happy that the thought of creating rubrics no longer sparks a negative reaction.
