Lesson Plan and Activities Rainforest ArtLink Rubric
A rubric is a scoring guide which can be used to measure student performance based on a set of criteria . Rubrics are a tool that can be used by students to self-assess , give peer feedback and / or be used by the teacher to assess finished projects . Used as pre- and post-evaluation criteria , this rubric can identify individual student growth from the beginning to the completion of Creative Connections ’ Rainforest ArtLink Program .
While this rubric can be used for multiple age / grade / ability levels , the performance level of students being introduced to the study of cultural norms and values is likely to be at a lower level than that of students who have more experience with this subject . Also , it would be expected that the quality of work necessary to achieve each level would be academically and developmentally appropriate to the students ’ age / grade / ability level . The levels are : Beginning , Developing , Proficient , Mastery and Advanced . However , you may substitute your school ’ s ranking criteria in place of these degrees of quality .
Use of this rubric can provide valuable information for teachers and administrators regarding student achievement and the efficacy of Creative Connections ’ Rainforest ArtLink Program .
