Sample Rubric Student Performance Review

A rubric may consist of two sections, the first of which is a performance-criteria checklist where the students are evaluated in one or more areas. The second section provides the teacher a space to make specific anecdotal comments about the student’s performance. The sample rubric provided is very general and is designed to serve as a structural model; Feel free to modify the rubric as needed. When adapting and using the sample rubric, teachers will need to reflect on expected outcomes and classroom observations and experiences, as well as review student work and the skills checklist. To assess students, teachers should make a determination and place an “X” in each of the appropriate cells. The checklist and comments should help the teacher to make a fair and comprehensive evaluation of the student’s work.

Unsatisfactory

An “unsatisfactory” mark should be rare. This designation is reserved for the student who seldom completes assignments, participates in activities or complies with peers.

Needs Practice

A student who is new to the material or skills likely would fall into this category. The continuing student who acquires few of the course skills and requires significant assistance should also receive this designation.

Satisfactory

A “satisfactory” mark should be reserved for the student who attains most course skills and completes most projects. Some additional practice may be needed in a few areas, but overall progress is acceptable.

Mastered

“Mastered” indicates that a student has completed all of the projects and has attained all course skills and objectives. This student can perform designated tasks automatically and consistently.

Superior

Generally, few students will attain the “superior” mark. This is for the student who regularly exceeds expectations. For example, a superior student may apply a combination of multimedia and other technical skills to create innovative projects.
