ADVANTAGES AND

DISADVANTAGESOF

RUBRIC

ADVANTAGES

Helps the grading process become more efficient

Clarifies quality of expectations to students about their works

Students are able to assess their own work

Students can understand better the rationale and the reason for grades

Helps improvement student performance because they know what to focus on

DISADVANTAGES

Time-consuming Using the correct language to express performance expectation can be difficult

RECOMMENDATION: I recommend that fewer levels of

performance be included initially because such is:-easier and quicker to administer-easier to explain to students (and others)

CONCLUSION:

I therefore conclude that we, as a future educator, we don’t need to despair in making or designing an instructional rubric.
