Prompt:

I need to create a comprehensive, fair, and clear rubric for assessing student work. Please help me develop a detailed rubric that will provide consistent evaluation criteria and helpful feedback. ASSESSMENT DETAILS: - Assignment type: [PROJECT/PRESENTATION/ESSAY/ETC.] - Subject/Course: [SUBJECT] - Grade level: [GRADE LEVEL] - Learning objectives: [KEY OBJECTIVES] - Assignment description: [BRIEF DESCRIPTION] - Specific skills to assess: [KEY SKILLS] - Point value or grading scale: [TOTAL POINTS/SCALE] Please create a detailed rubric that includes: 1. PERFORMANCE CRITERIA * 4-6 key dimensions of assessment (e.g., content knowledge, organization, delivery, etc.) * Clear distinction between dimensions to avoid overlap * Criteria that directly align with learning objectives * Balance between content mastery and skill demonstration * Any required components or elements to include 2. PERFORMANCE LEVEL DESCRIPTIONS * 3-5 performance levels with distinct labels * Detailed qualitative descriptions for each level within each criterion * Clear differentiation between adjacent performance levels * Observable, measurable language rather than vague terms * Descriptions of both what is present and what is missing at each level 3. SCORING GUIDELINES * Point allocation across criteria (weighted appropriately) * Point distribution within each criterion * Total point calculation method * Score to grade conversion (if applicable) * Minimum requirements for passing 4. STUDENT-FRIENDLY ELEMENTS * Accessible language appropriate for my students * Positive framing where possible * Examples or indicators of what each level looks like * Space for feedback comments * Self-assessment opportunity 5. IMPLEMENTATION GUIDANCE * How to introduce the rubric to students * When to share the rubric (before, during, after assignment) * Tips for efficient grading using this rubric * How to use the rubric for feedback and improvement * Ways to involve students in understanding the criteria Please format the rubric in a clear, organized manner that would be easy to share with students and straightforward to use as a grading tool. Include any additional considerations I should keep in mind when implementing this rubric.
