Using rubrics more to judge learning

I need to have the students create and utilize rubrics more often to judge their own work and the work of classmates. This will keep the students more engaged and accountale during group projects.

The first assignment I want to use this on is ethical dilemmas. The 3 can score the other group members because they need to be persuaded by one person or group. They are in the best position to judge the arguments of others.

Action- I need to create a group discussion rubric and explain it to the students. I will then sharbthe rubric with the class and allow them to criticize and improve the rubric.

I can also use a survey to gather data about the effectiveness of the group projects and improve how they are conducted.
