  Case: Writing in the content areas
Mrs. Black was asked to create a general writing rubric for all content area teachers for writing task purposes. All subject areas would use this rubric as an assessment evaluator for the current push for writing in all content areas. What does Mrs. Black put on the rubric? How can this rubric be user-friendly to assure the other content area teachers use this effectively and easily?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This is a great idea. To ensure that all content areas can use this rubric it needs to be very flexible. Possible areas of flexibility would be like organization, grammar, flow, content. Rubrics can have the same elements that it measures but allow the different content areas develop specific factors that go into the areas they would like to see measured.
