As workloads and work responsibilities continue to increase, assessment often causes teachers anxiety. Rubrics: What Every Teacher Needs to Know is a handbook that combines theory and pragmatism in clear language to help pre- and in-service teachers and teacher trainers obtain assessment information quickly and efficiently. While many teachers do not realize that creating an assignment is creating an assessment, they should go hand in hand. This book highlights both the value of rubrics and the value of assessment literacy, which is the knowledge, skills, and abilities needed to create, administer, and understand the results of assessments to improve student learning.
Rubrics provides new and experienced teachers with the tools to become more transparent assessors of their students’ writing, reading, listening, speaking, grammar, and vocabulary. Authors Deborah Crusan and Robyn Brinks Lockwood bring their expertise in assessment and English for academic purposes to address the challenges teachers face in writing clear assignments and grading them fairly. They emphasize that teachers need to think about what they want their students to be able to do, clarify their expectations to their students, and convey those expectations on a rubric/scoring guide. While transparent, step-by-step instructions are included in the book to help teachers create their own assignments and assessments, the appendix materials containing ready-made assignments and their accompanying rubrics will be sure to delight busy teachers.
Robyn Brinks Lockwood is Advanced Lecturer in the Language Center at the School of Humanities and Social Sciences at Stanford University. Her books include Making Academic Presentations: What Every University Student Needs to Know. Deborah Crusan is Professor Emerita of English at Wright State University. Her books include Linking Assignments to Assessments: A Guide for Teachers and Assessment in the Second Language Writing Classroom.
