Policy on Multiple Behaviors in One Cell

Uses graceful language that skillfully communicates meaning to readers with clarity and fluency, and is virtually error-free.

VALUE Rubrics are all written and tested by teams of faculty

Limiting performance descriptors
to one behavior
for every criteria
is challenging

Ideal:
One behavior per rubric cell

Reality:
Some rubric cells
contain multiple behaviors

Policy to avoid muddy data

When we are asked to look
for more than one behavior
use a multi step procedure

Uses graceful language that skillfully communicates meaning to readers with clarity and fluency, and is virtually error-free.
