All right. Let’s go ahead and look at some examples of rubrics and checklists…..
So we saw the group assessment example and you guys are familiar with the type of –
with the example of my rubrics. They’re actually not my rubrics; they’re the MA
TESOL program at San Bernardino rubrics. When you see this format, this is going to be included
in your final portfolio to show what you’ve accomplished in the MA TESOL program, which
means you don’t want to delete if I email this to you, you don’t want to delete that,
if your teacher hands it back to you, you don’t want to throw it away. You need to
keep a record of your portfolios, for your portfolio. Whenever it’s in this format,
you need to keep a record of it, keep a copy of it. So you’re familiar with this type
of assessment. Let’s look at some other assessment examples.
So this is an oral assessment example. It’s just a simple little checklist where you are
checking their spoken grammar: are they able to form sentences, are they able to use past
tense, use future tenses, form simple sentences, form complex sentences, the errors that prevent
comprehension. Errors that prevent comprehension is a yes or no check mark. But form sentences,
they could do that alone or with help. You choose one of those columns to put a check
mark in. Use past tense, you can put a mark under alone or a mark under with help. This
is a simple oral assessment. This is a more elaborate presentation evaluation form. You
would circle where they fall on the scale for the delivery, planning, voice, participation,
what’s their skill level, visual aids, did they use visual aids, are they organized,
what’s the quality of the accuracy and the creativity, was there teamwork? This was an
example, an oral assessment example.
How do you create rubrics? The most famous rubric maker is Rubistar. Do a Google search
for Rubistar and it will come up with this and you choose what type of content are you
grading? Is it writing? Are you going to do an oral project or a multimedia project? Then
you click on that, and then you’re just going to choose what type of writing rubric
you’re going to choose. And I can show you when you’re going to download it as a Microsoft
Excel file. This is actually at Microsoft Excel file that I downloaded, I created online.
This rubric is Rubistar, you can use their format, their template, and then it gave me
choice on how I wanted to save it. I saved it as a Microsoft Excel file. Up here I put
how many points are available for this column, how many points for this column, and in each
box you can either accept what Rubistar puts there or you can change it. Word choice was
there and I came up on Excel and typed in “5 senses” up in this box that you see
typed in. Then I had to write this and I write: Writer uses all five senses of words hearing,
so I’ve taught them all five senses. The Writer uses 3-4 senese, and that falls in
this column. Down here, sentence structure, most sentences are well constructed, there’s
2-3 awkward sentences falls in this column. So you can make changes to your Rubistar in
Excel and save it. And by the way, if I click over here, I can –
