Rubric Feedback

I was browsing through lots of blogs today. Most of the blogs I browse through was in a different language, so I didn’t quite understand what it is about. Luckily, I found a blog that was quite interesting. This is the link http://greentransportandenergy.blogspot.com/. This blog is about green transport and energy. It talks about hybrid cars. It also talks about ways one could make their cars “greener” for the environment. It also have a lot of statistics in there. What I really like about this blog is that it has pictures and data that are related to its subject. The pictures were not random. The pictures help the readers to easily visualize what is being discussed in the blog. So in the rubric, I recommend that there should be something about not just posting random pictures for the heck of it. The pictures need to be related to the subject at hand. If the pictures used are visually interesting, then there will get all the points for awesome pictures.

Also, the blog rubric should includes such things as turning things on time, the number of words require in each blogs, and content. The blogs cannot be totally random. The blogs need to be about the progress of each student’s project. These blogs should be detailed enough so that the reader will know what the student is currently doing. Also, if student do more than expected, then they will be able to receive a higher score or extra points. Also there should include some data about their project in their blogs. In this way the teacher can be sure that the students are doing what they are suppose to be doing and not making things up. Also, the rubric should be very precise in what the teacher wants to see in the blogs of her student.
