I am retiring soon! Don’t want to use them. Rubrics are our friends! My life has been changed forever! I can’t imagine a life without rubrics!

The Human Rubric

• 1. Line up under the number and phrase that

describes your feeling about rigorous rubrics!

1 2 3 4

• 2. Discuss with a person in your same line how

you feel about using more rigorous rubrics in your assessment plan.

• 3. Share your feelings with the entire group.

Possibilities for Human Rubrics

How would you rate your ability to meet the standard? 1 Novice (Not Yet) 2 In Progress (I am trying!) 3 Meets Standard (I did it!) 4 Exceeds Standard (I’m awesome!) How do you feel about ________________________________ (controversial statement)? 1 Strongly Disagree or Don’t Really Care! 2 Not Sure! 3 I Agree! 4 I Strongly Agree! How valuable was this information for you? 1 Will never, ever need it or use it–ever! 2 Could be useful sometime– somewhere! 3 Will help me in school, career, or life! 4 Will help me succeed in all I do for the rest of my life!
