Can it really be done? Of course... To be
honest, you will have to enter the rubric name, the course,
and the grade level. The rest of the rubric can be created
using some of the Rubricator's unique features. Here's how...
From the Rubric List screen click the 'Create' button.
A selection screen will appear containing the different level
rubrics the Rubricator 5 is able to create. Choose the level
you wish to work with and click the 'Done' button. For this
example a 3-Level rubric is used.
A blank rubric template appears next ready for your ideas
and information. Notice your name and the current date are
already entered and appear in the upper left-hand corner of
the template window. The only information that needs to be
entered by hand for this rubric is, the title, the subject,
and the grade level.
Now on to the easy part, click the 'Add' button under 'Element
Options'.
The Rubricator needs to know if you'd like to type your own
elements, or pick from a group of elements that it has stored
for you. Click the 'Pick from List' button.
A selection screen appears, use the drop-down arrow under
'Choose an Element Type' to display the current list of available
types.
For this example we chose 'Writing' from the drop-down list.
After clicking the writing option, the 'Achievement Target'
list changes to reflect what was chosen. Since 'Handwriting'
is the target we want to use, nothing needs to be done with
this drop-down list. Next click on 'Neatness of Handwriting'
under 'Choose an Element'.
The element and it's supportive levels appear in the "Complete
Element' view pain. To add it to the rubric, click the 'Add
this Element' button.
The rubric template screen appears again containing the element.
Keep adding to the rubric by using the 'Add' button.
This time 'Drawing' is the element type used...
...And 'Illustrations' is the target.
This element is added to the rubric by, once again, clicking
the "Add this Element' button.
The rubric template appears once again containing the latest
added element.
Continue adding elements until the rubric is complete.
Once finished, the rubric can be save as a web page document,
just click the 'Export HTML' button.
A screen will appear with many different style choices. For
this example the default style is used.
Continue with the web creation by clicking 'Done'.
Next, a 'Save As' dialog box will appear, it's a good idea
to set the 'Save in' folder to your Desktop so you can find
your document easily after it's created. Once the file has
been created it can be moved it to any folder on your computer.
Notice also that the file name is the same as the title you
gave your rubric - No extra typing needed here! Click the
'Save' button to create the HTML document. Once back at your
rubric template, click the 'Save' button to store your work
in the database.
Upon saving, the list screen will appear again displaying
your rubric creation. To return to the list of New Measure
examples click the 'Show Examples' button.
