Rúbrica
1)
Which elements does the rubric introduce in the learning process?
The rubric
is a way to evaluate the knowledge acquired by pupils, as well it is assessment
and auto-evaluation. Rubric is ideal to begin to be used at primary education
because children need to manage their own learning. It would be ideal that each
student could be aware of his/her own process of learning. In this ways they
know in which point are them and they can begin from that point to reflect on what they need to progress and how they
are going to do it The rubric could be an essential tool to help teachers to
observe the pupil’s improvement. We think that all the teaching and learning
process must contain a rubric because in addition to evaluate pupils and
teacher it needs evaluate their own process.
2)
How does it help the students?
It helps
like guidelines cause with rubrics they can know specially their mistakes and
how to correct it. It offers so many
possibilities like for example self – evaluation or take in account how to
discover other ways for their development. It is so useful to make better
children’s responsibilities and it can help them to be more organize in their
way of working.
3)
Why is it good for the teacher?
Because it’s
a better way to evaluate and it makes his work easier. Maybe it can help the
teacher to change his methodology to another one that can take into account pupils’
responsibilities in their learning process and it might be more satisfactory
than the other one.
4)
Can you think of advantages and disadvantages?
These are
the rubric’s advantages as assessment:
- Students are able to assess their
own work, giving them more control on their learning process.
- Rubrics motivate students to get
the specified standards.
- They are quite flexible tools: we
can use them in many different contexts and grades.
- We can use them to assess a wide
range of abilities.
- They help students to focus their
work in a specific way.
- Rubrics give detailed feedback to
students.
- They force the teacher to specify
the criteria.
However, we
can find in rubrics the following disadvantages:
- They can be complex to produce.
- They require much more time from
the teacher.
- They can restrict student’s skills
if they feel that they have to limit themselves strictly to the rubric instead
of taking initiatives to explore.
