Rubrics

[M O'Neill]

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone is using rubrics in the technology room.  How is your scoring done 1..2..3..4..?  Is there a way you add behavior in with it or is it strictly technology?  Thanks for any advice and if anyone has a sample I would love to get a look at it.  Thanks again.

I teach 3 - 6 technology and use rubrics all the time to grade projects for 5th and 6th graders.  I usually include 3 levels:  excellent, good, and needs improvement.  Since I integrate technology into what they are learning in class, I include skills other than just technology.  For example, if it is a math project, the solution must be correct.  They must include a clear explanation of how they solved the problem and I always include spelling and grammar.  I also included formatting text and graphics.
