SIMPLE SCORING GUIDES TO EVALUATE STUDENT RESPONSES +
About the Scoring Guides Workshop
Each constructed-response question is accompanied by a correctly written scoring guide (rubric) so that educators can accurately and quickly score/grade student responses. An objectively worded scoring guide (containing no vague, subjective language that students may interpret differently from the intended wording) will assist students by referring to it as they complete their assessment responses and assist educators in quickly and correctly evaluating student responses. Instructions and guidance for creating this type of objectively worded scoring guide in a simple but highly effective format is a key component of this workshop session.
