Rubric Resources | The Teaching & Learning Centre | Seneca Polytechnic

A rubric is a document which communicates performance expectations. It contains criteria which will be assessed, and levels of performance quality (often with mark ranges). When distributed to students with an assignment, the rubric ensures students are clear on the expectations for the assignment. It would also be used by the instructor to provide feedback (marks and comments) on completed student work.
