Assessment or evaluation
The main purpose of rubrics is to…
Assess performance made evident in processes and products
Two major parts of rubrics:

- Description of levels of performance for these criteria
In this rubric, each criterion is evaluated separately
Analytic Rubric
In this rubric, all criteria are evaluated simultaneously
Holistic Rubric
An analytic rubric is good for ___________ assessment
formative
It is a test map that guides the teacher in constructing a test
Table of Specifications (TOS)
It is referred to as the average of scores
Mean
The __________ is the score at the middle of the distribution
median
If scores are plotted in a histogram, that with the highest frequency is the ______
mode
It is a measure of the spread of scores
Standard Deviation
A ________ standard deviation means that the data are more clustered around the mean hence the dataset is more consistent
lower
