Rubric:

            Student generated note, bib, and topic cards.

 

Reflection: This rubric was created to assess student progress of note, bib and topic cards.  This assessment tool clearly aligned with the instructional goals requiring students to display information apporiately on 3X5 index cards.  The rubric was introduced during a peer review session.  Students exchanged the various cards and critiqued each others work.  All cards were habded into me for final review. The authentic rubric below allowed myself to accurately determine studetns undersanding and progress.
