STEPS to USE of CO-CONSTRUCTED RUBRICS
|
PURPOSE |
SUPPORT DOCUMENTS
& DATA COLLECTION INSTRUMENTS |
Step 1: To develop
data collection instruments and
recruit participants to track the progress of using
co-constructed rubrics |
Develop data collection instruments to
administer after the co-constructed rubrics have been used
|
To answer the “use” aspect of Research Question
2: How can students and teachers co-construct and plan the
collaborative use of rubrics for students learning? |

Use of rubric questionnaire for lecturers

|
Recruit pilot group (about 5 lecturers
and 5 students) |
To test the data collection instruments and
make any adjustments deemed necessary.
|
See four data collection instruments above |
Re-establish contact with project
participants (lecturers and students) |
To inform participants of project and for
record keeping and tracking. |
See the
Full co-construction protocol document for Phase 3 |
Establish data collection times and
dates |
To assist the lecturer and ensure the lecturer
is conversant with process. |
See the
Full co-construction protocol document for Phase 3 |
Step 2: Guidance on
use of co-constructed rubrics and administration of data
collection instruments |
Meetings between lecturers and
researchers |
Clarification of use of co-constructed rubrics and data
collection process.
Researchers establish a data collection schedule, in conjunction
with lecturers.
|
See the
Full co-construction protocol document for Phase 3 |
Step 3: Use of rubrics and data collection
|
Session 1 |
Lecturers remind students about the rubrics they
co-constructed in previous phase. Rubrics are introduced early
in the semester, along with any other documents created by the
students and lecturers during the co-construction phase.
|
[no data collection instruments required at the beginning of
this process]
|
Session 2 |
Continue rubric use throughout semester
|
|
Session 3 |
Administer data collection instruments after co-constructed
rubrics have been used (Questionnaire for Students and
Lecturers, Focus group with Students, Interviews with
Lecturers).
Offer certificate of participation to student-participants.
