Turnitin Rubrics and grading forms help to evaluate student work, based on defined criteria and scales. They can either be created while creating an assignment or after a student has made a submission.
When creating an assignment, the optional settings allow lecturer to either attach an existing rubric or create a new rubric by launching the Rubric/Form Manager.
There are four grading tools to choose from:
- Standard rubric - used for numerical scoring.
-
- This type of rubric allows you to enter scale values and criteria percentages.
- The criteria percentages combined must equal 100% as each criterion represents a percentage of the student’s overall grade.
- The maximum grade value for this type of rubric will be the same as the highest scale value entered.
- Qualitative rubric - used for providing feedback without the use of numerical scoring.
- The scale and criteria used for this type of rubric are more descriptive than measurable.
