Some in the group may want to check this new version of the old jGR and current Interpersonal Skills Rubric. In keeping with our way of working together here as a group, we never assume that there is only one way to do something. Ron Wilbur explains what he did and why in creating a new version of the ISR that works for him:
Hey Ben –
A couple years ago I observed that the rubric you presented was prejudicial to quiet students. I did not improve on it, though.
This year, however, I am trying this one I have attached. It’s cumbersome, but so far it works well. The students evaluate themselves, and then I do the same on the same sheet. I give an overall avg. score, as a result. The first time they freaked at their low scores simply due to their extensive use of English. It certainly got their attention.
Anyway, when you get a chance, I would like your critique.
