Assessing+Online+Discussions

=Creating Scoring Guides for Discussion Forum Prompts= The construction of a rubric for participation has to, of course, be related to the grade level and language competency of the students. The following list of rubrics is by no means inclusive, but represents a starting point for the creation of an online participation rubric for your online course.  Activity:
 * 1) Begin by looking at the sample rubrics contained within this module and/or online discussion participation rubrics that you have identified as being a good model for the development of your own rubric.
 * 2) Create a sample rubric for use in your online classroom.
 * 3) Apply your rubric to the sample postings contained within the resource section.
 * 4) Place your rubric and scoring within the Discussion Forum.
 * 5) Compare your rubric and scoring results with two other participants. Where was there agreement? Where was there disagreement?
 * 6) Reflect upon the changes (if any) you would make to your online discussion participation rubric after seeing the work of others in the course.
