How to Create and Use Rubrics for Formative Assessment and Grading

I needed this book and the condition of the book was better than advertised.

The author takes you through a journey on how to design and identify meaningful rubrics and provides examples of well-designed rubrics.

This book was listed in "Acceptable" condition. NO! This book was NEW! The only indicator of it being used was a last name printed on the first page. Other than that, this book is new! I've purchased books from the book store that have more wear and tear.

Very useful to grade skills. We really need alternative forms to assess our students in higher education. Easy to apply

I enjoyed the book. The text helped me for a course assignment.You can get the necessary information free on the internet.In support of authors, I purchased and enjoyed the book.

Since I didn't get much training on these topics when I went through alternative teacher certification I have been doing a poor job at all three. This book has some very good info and samples that will help me greatly improve how I prepare and use these metrics.... This in turn will help my students better understand upfront expectations and will more effectively measure what they've learned and gaps I need to reteach.

This is a very smart book. I was anti-rubric before I read this, but now I see that well-written rubric not only induces instsructors to make assignment instructions more clear but also helps students better understand assignments. Although I will not replace individualized comments with a rubric only, good rubrics are not grading "cheat sheets." This book is a must have for instructors of any level.

This book definitely clarified the type of rubrics that can be used for formative assessments, grading and student self-assessment. I will be referring to the examples located at the end of the book!
