Homework rubric template
Define criteria, weights, performance levels, evidence, and feedback examples before reviewing open-ended work.
Editable teaching workflow
Separate dimensions that need different feedback
Reasoning, accuracy, evidence, communication, and task completion should not disappear into one unexplained number.
Describe observable evidence
A reviewer should be able to point to the response and explain why a level applies.
Use weights intentionally
Do not let surface presentation outweigh the learning outcome unless communication is itself the outcome.
Common mistake: vague adjectives
Words such as “good” or “excellent” need evidence and examples to produce consistent review.
