Back in the 80's we called them tests. Now they are referred to as assessments. No matter what they are called, they accomplish the same thing--giving the teacher an idea of where a student is in learning a subject or concept. Has it been mastered or is there still some work to do?
Rubric
We were given the task to design a rubric. I think the rubrics are a bit more complicated than the old fashioned letter grades we used to receive. However, I do like them since they do provide a more detailed picture of how a student is doing grasping a concept or how he/she is performing.
Here is the rubric I designed:
