Creating a Rubric on Feedback Fruits

Rubrics are valuable tools for setting clear expectations for students and supporting constructive peer feedback. They can be reused across various activities, such as peer reviews, group member evaluations, assignment assessments, and skill development reviews.

Rubrics can be created in My Library or while creating an assignment. It is advised to create it in My Library as it would allow rubrics to be reused on multiple existing activities.

Please contact CELT at celt@stonybrook.edu for assistance in creating rubrics.
