Subjectivity can creep in anytime we assess student progression toward competence in the absence of clear standards for evaluation. Utilization of rubrics enhances the transparency of the assessment process, creates calibrated expectations for faculty and allows students to identify clearly defined requirements for higher-level thinking. Concise rubrics provide an opportunity to self-evaluate and receive targeted feedback for maximum success. In this series of short talks, you will learn about different types of rubrics and their implementation in dental education to ensure more effective and transparent assessments.

Learning Objectives:

  • Identify standard verbiage to evaluate various levels of performance.
  • Distinguish clear and focused criteria for student evaluation.
  • Demonstrate the application of rubrics in different dental education settings.
