My Map
1. Review Scoring Rubrics in Assessment of Learning 2, 2007, by
Santos, R. pp.37-44.

2. Interview at least 2 Resource Teachers on their use of scoring rubrics in

assessing learning.

3. Request my Resource teachers for a copy (for to photocopy) of the

scoring rubrics that the school uses for group projects, student papers,
cooperative learning activities.

4. If there are no scoring rubrics available, I will research on samples of

scoring rubrics for student papers, cooperative learning activities, group
projects, performances and the like.

5. I will analyze information from my interview and research.

6. I will reflect on all information gathered.
