Assessment

= Evaluating Your Students =

The rubric is one authentic assessment tool often used to assess webquests. It is a formative type of assessment because it becomes an ongoing part of the whole teaching and learning process. Students themselves are involved in the assessment process through both peer and self-assessment. As students become familiar with rubrics, they can assist in the rubric design process. When students are involved in developing the assessment their learning becomes more self-directed.

=Rubrics=
 * clearly show the student how their work will be evaluated and what is expected
 * contain a description of expected performance which are arranged in levels indicating the **degree** to which a standard has been met
