Pedagogical Potential and Didactic Limitations of Assessment Rubrics: An Example From Medical Education
Abstract
High-level cognitive skills are often demonstrated at the performance level. For this reason, performance assessment has become an important element of educational assessment. One of the biggest problems in open-ended questions, oral exams, and performance evaluation is to develop a scoring method that will ensure consistency between raters. At this point, the rubric emerges as a functional scoring tool. Rubrics have many known advantages such as defining the elements and qualities of performance that should be exhibited in educational assessment, consistency between raters, and supporting teaching. On the other hand, there are situations that create barriers in use, such as difficulty in preparation, time consuming to prepare, requiring expertise, and defining the qualifications by distributing them in a balanced way. However, it cannot be said that these are the only obstacles in the use of rubrics. At the same time, educator typology in lesson process and trainer profiles, educational beliefs, and educator roles can be counted among the important barriers in using rubric.
