Redesign Rubrics

How might we redesign rubrics to empower students to lead their own learning? In this short experience, you’ll shift rubrics from tools for final assessment to tools for leading a learning process. Designed to move you from understanding to action in just a few hours, this two-day, fully asynchronous course provides highly curated resources, examples, and action steps for redesigning how you create and use rubrics. GOA coaches will be facilitating online spaces where you can discuss ideas and share work in progress. You’ll leave with a student-centered plan for designing and using rubrics to empower students to understand learning criteria, to reflect, to give and receive feedback, and to self-assess.

• Educators across all grades and content areas

• Educators prioritizing assessment for learning

• Educators needing high-impact, low-time-commitment learning experiences

• School teams seeking to establish common language and approaches to student-centered learning

Redesigning rubrics is not starting from scratch. It’s taking what you’re already doing and redesigning and revising for more intentional, student-centered impact.

In this course you will learn:

• Rubric design that invites conversation, not evaluation

• Strategies for rubric use throughout the learning process

• Shifts in rubric design and use that empower students to lead their own learning

• Rubric design for feedback, reflection, and goal setting
