Lesson Plan Rubric
Directions for Rubric Use
This rubric is intended to be used several times during WIT as you work on your web based lesson plan. It is important that you are satisfied with how your lesson looks, what it says, and how it can be used by others. This assessment tool is designed to help you get your lesson plan to the place you want it to be!
Decide whether you will self, peer,
or group assess the web lesson plan or project. There are 3 scoring
levels to this rubric: Don't Have A Clue, But Am Hopeful!;
I'm Getting There!; By George! I Know I've Got It!.
Within the rubric there are 4 sections: Page Presentation; Content;
Wit Teaching Guide; and Cooperative Group Work. Each section
is divided into components which are followed by three descriptors - one
for each of the scoring levels. Print a copy of the rubric.
Check the boxes under each section that hold the descriptors that best
fit the project you are assessing. See Scoring at the bottom
of this page to see whether your work is at Don't Have a Clue, But Am
Hopeful!; I'm Getting There!; or By George! I Know I've Got It!
