CoRubrics

Hi there, how are you? I really hope you find well. I am in my summer break, in fact today is my first day of Summer holidays because I have finished my last training course. One of the task that I had to do is to evaluate coleagues using CoRubrics and this tool is outstanding! Because of that I wanted to share it in this post. It can be useful in our lessons so that pupils can also learn from their classmates while the assessing process. On the following video you will see that CoRubrics is a quite automatized process resource. You just have to follow the steps carefully. I hope you can apply it to your lessons. It really saves us lots of work when evaluating and you make kids participate in the assessment process too.

Useful tool for teachers!

I have just find JoeZoo Express out and I'm very excited about the possibilities we have as teachers.

There are many things we can do but one of the most important is to use rubrics to give feedback and grades to students because it offers a free rubric builder. We can customize the rubric to meet our specific needs. Also, we can create, save and insert it into students' documents shared in a educational blog, as an example.

Maybe it can take some time to understand all of the features of it but there are lots of videos that will walk you through the settings and use of it. 

Here you have the first one. You can subscribe it and follow its playlist of tutorials.

Rubrics

Rubrics appeal to teachers and students. 

They are powerful tools for both teaching and assessment. They improve student performance by making teachers' expectations clear and by showing students how to meet these expectations:

As a consequence, they provide an accurate feedback.

Here you have a generator of rubrics.
