Criteria Based Assessment

Back 1

Criteria-based assessment involves using scoring guides – often referred to as rubrics – that are utilised to measure a student’s learning outcome. Enabling teachers to divide standardised learning objectives into smaller parts, the rubric, or scoring guide, is used to evaluate a student's learning on the basis of a range of criteria, not just a single numeric score. If the assessment rubric is presented to the students before they start working on assignments, they are aware of the criteria by which their work will be assessed and can reflect as they go.
