With the implementation of competency based assessment within the Australian vocational education and training (VET) sector the focus has been on valid and reliable assessments to ensure that there are consistent outcomes across training providers. Underpinning this has being the notion of providing assessment judgements within a dichotomous reporting framework; that is competent or not yet com...

Identifying and implementing effective methods for assessing dental student performance are ongoing challenges for dental educators. Questions related to grading and assessment are common among faculty and students alike. Faculty members who are well-trained clinicians or scientists often have little formal training in education. In addition, assessment of performance brings with it an element ...

Abstract Rubrics for writing courses have become increasingly popular yet there been few studies published from the GCC. This study investigated effectiveness of rubrics in business classes at a Kuwait university. The participants were 104 students who given survey that evaluated their opinions rubrics. In addition, several instructors these interviewed. It found robust rubric may help ensure g...

This paper describes the experience of the authors with the development of scoring rubrics for projects in the core subjects of an Information Systems program. It presents an overview of student learning assessment issues in professional courses and the role of educational projects for that purpose. Then the steps of deriving project rubrics in different subjects across the Information Systems ...

This game analysis experimentally transposes Louis Hjelmslev's linguistic methodology, for logically deducing semiotic schema from a given text, to the analysis of games. Roger Caillois' fourfold model of game type rubrics is therefore reconceptualized, as a logically coherent analytic framework, from which an analysis might proceed indefinitely. Such analysis was practiced on a Dutch translati...

We study classroom discussions to obtain a fuzzy summary of the quality of teaching and opportunities to learn mathematics created in whole-class settings. We consider the ten rubrics of the Instructional Quality Assessment and make a fuzzy interpretation of this tool. We selected two problems of proportionality and collected data from forty-nine students. We make a statistical analysis of thei...
