Rubrics for Evaluation

Evaluation of your resource for engagement, interest and easily navigable links plus alignment to learning objectives is an important step in the design process. Checking to see if your webdilemma or webquest is easily worked through, whether it builds on prior knowledge, whether the material links to real life situations or information, or whether the questions you have written are understood clearly without further explanation needs to be inspected. Frequent evalution even after you have released the resource to students is good as students are often your best resource when it comes to feedback.

These tools (rubrics) can be used for self evaluation of each resource to determine whether accessibility and design guidelines have been followed and met.

CSU has created guidelines for creating material for the web and they can be found here. This is a checklist for you to determine whether you are meeting the standards suggested.

Here is a rubric for evaluating Webquests. It is important to have a rich, relevant and real task for students to undertake to maximise their knowledge and understanding of real situations.

Online multimedia can be evaluated initially by a broad set of criteria and rubric form cartoon these rubrics may help you evaluate whether you have created a good resource. Use them as a checklist and perhaps get others to test your resource as well.
