Steps
in
Developing
1. Identify
your
standards,
Rubrics
objectives
and goals for
your students.
Standard is a statement
of what the students should
be able to know or be able
to
perform.
It
should
indicate that your students
should
meet
these
standards.

Reviewer, 2012 Edition. Sampaloc, Manila: MET Review Publishing House.

2. Identify the characteristics

of a good performance on that
task,
the
criteria.
When the students perform
or present their work, it should
indicate that they performed
well in the task given to them;
hence
they
meet
that
particular
standards.

Reviewer, 2012 Edition. Sampaloc, Manila: MET Review Publishing House.

3. Identify the levels of

performance for each criterion.
In this case, the rater can
sufficiently discriminate the
performance of the students in
each criteria providing them
more detailed feedback about
their
performance.

Developing Scoring
Rubrics

A
step-by-step
process
for
designing scoring rubrics for classroom
use is presented on the next slide.
Information for these procedures was
compiled
from

see) your students demonstrate in
their product, process, or
