Social Responsibility Evaluation Rubric
NormingAssessment of student learning within General Education is made more meaningful when locally defined rubrics are used to evaluate authentic student work. However, in order for rubrics to be applied effectively by a discipline or multiple disciplines across the college it’s important to first reach a high degree of group consensus through the “norming” process.
The following score sheet and samples of student work are used in the norming process for this outcome. These samples reflect low, middle and high student performance on the rubric.
