Standards and Rubrics
Standards (and objectives) are meaningless
until you define how to assess them.
Because of this, assessments are the starting
point for instruction, not the end.
(Paul Bambrick-Santoyo)
43
Standards and Rubrics
In an open-ended question, the rubric defines the rigor.
In a multiple choice question, the options define the rigor.
