TI 0964 - Best practices for designing a quality rubric for instructors

Course Description

A rubric is more than a grading tool. In online and blended courses, rubrics are a great way to gauge student learning, engagement, and competencies. Designing high-quality rubrics for use in online and blended learning courses promote student-centered learning through clear communication, explicit assignment expectations, and timely feedback. In this workshop, we will use sample rubrics to explore best practices and learn how to use the Rubrics tool in D2L for efficient teaching and learning.

By the end of this workshop, you will be able to:

• identify essential markers of competency and integrate them into a D2L rubric,
• leverage rubrics to identify opportunities for deeper learning or skills development, and
• embed opportunities for formative feedback and development throughout your course.

Please note: Registration will close 2 business days before each workshop. Participants will receive relevant Zoom information via email at least 1 hour before the designated start time.
