The primary difference between traditional assessment and assessing multimedia projects created with technology and web 2.0 tools is that one must consider the unique features and possibilities associated with a specific medium.

Whereas, a wiki would have a completely different set of expectations and requirements when compared to a student video project.

Step 4: Create the Rubric

In Step 1 of creating an authentic assessment, you identified what you wanted your students to know and be able to do -- your standards. In Step 2, you asked how students could demonstrate that they had met your standards. As a result, you developed authentic tasks they could perform. In Step 3, you identified the characteristics of good performance on the authentic task -- the criteria. Now, in Step 4, you will finish creating the authentic assessment by constructing a rubric to measure student performance on the task. Once you have identified the criteria you want to look for as indicators of good performance, you next decide whether to consider the criteria analytically or holistically. No. Peer review.

This posts examine peer grading and suggests what conditions must be present in order for peer grading to be effective.

For each one, we’ll look at an example, explore its pros and cons, and provide a blank template you can use to create your own. Off we go! A holistic rubric is the most general kind. It lists three to five levels of performance, along with a broad description of the characteristics that define each level. Suppose you’re an unusually demanding person.
