Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path

"What’s the difference between a scoring guide and a rubric? After all, there’s a lot they share in common. Both scoring guides and rubrics:

 

• Show students how their assignments are being assessed by defining criteria and/or benchmarks in specific terms
• Can be used to help students self-assess the quality of their work and give useful peer feedback
• Have potential to reduce the amount of time teachers spend grading student work
• Purport to value objectivity over subjectivity

 

While the ‘what’ is similar, the ‘how’ is where the difference between a scoring guide and rubric is most evident."
