In this summer bonus episode, the instructional designers from Arizona State University’s Edson College of Nursing and Health Innovation (Steven Crawford, Jinnette Senecal, Celia Coochwytewa, and Aaron Kraft) discuss the importance of rubrics and how they may enhance the assessment and evaluation process for faculty. We then explore the relationship between rubrics and grading transparency, along with some ideas for designing effective rubrics.
