This Rubric template outlines the assessment criteria and provides a custom scoring guide for different steps in achieving each criterion. You can select which part of the scale a student’s work equates to for each criterion. Generic feedback is provided to the student depending on their performance in meeting each criterion. The overall mark is calculated by the feedback fields you select on the Rubric. This Rubric is suitable for use where each of your criterion has a different weighting and can be used for both Moodle and Turnitin assignments.
