Description: This mini-workshop presented a selection of learning objectives, writing assignments and assignment rubrics used in
a non-majors general education course, a majors introductory course, a mixed-majors upper level course and an upper-level
majors course. Discussion centered on how assignments and rubrics might vary depending on type of course, specific learning
objectives and classroom and grading time constraints. Discussion of assignment structure and rubric effectiveness included
debates on the advantages and disadvantages of multiple submissions, use of peer feedback (with same or different rubric) and
use of simple vs. detailed grading rubrics. Examples of rubrics presented in this mini-workshop can be found at:
