Laura McBain
Laura McBain - "The two  most common mistakes made in PBL, is not presenting the product to an audience/public regardless of whether the students have experienced success or failure. The second mistake is not having an authentic problem or challenge. The learning needs to be tied to real life".

CO-CREATING RUBRICS WITH STUDENTS
Involving Students in Creating Rubrics.
As educators, teachers have the responsibility to create assessments that encourage students to work towards a higher level of achievement. Rubrics are motivational tools for students, especially when students are involved in process. Students who are involved in the process of creating a rubric have a better understanding of the standards, gradations, and expectations of the assignment. Students also feel as if they have a "voice" within the classroom.
Here are some ways to get your class involved in the rubric creation:
In the beginning, introduce your students to a rubric by sharing a rubric and reviewing it step-by-step to ensure that they understand the standards, gradations, and expectations. After sharing a rubric, ask your students for their comments. Be sure to keep all relevant rubrics visible at all times (either on a bulletin board or a handout for each student). As students become more familiar with the purpose and layout of a rubric, ask them to assist you in designing a rubric for the next class assignment.
Why Involve Students?
By involving students in the creation of the rubric, students feel more empowered and their learning becomes more focused and self-directed.
  • Intrinsic motivation occurs when students design their own assessment tools.
  • If students help to create a rubric, it is much easier to hold them to its standards.
  • When students invest a decent amount of time and commitment into a project, they naturally want to participate in creating the assessment for that project.
  • The development of a rubric is a reflective process. It extends beyond just turning in a project.
  • Students involved in creating a rubric have a more concrete understanding of what is expected, and how to reach certain benchmarks.​
