Analytic rubrics therefore can be helpful in guiding future learning. The Connecticut Holistic Rubric is provided as an option on the site as a useful example of a holistic rubric. Ctcurriculum.org allows teachers who create a task to insert a comment field for each piece of student work. Teachers are encouraged to use the fields to explain their scoring decisions. Point ranges are generally not reliable scoring tools, so the web site does not encourage their use.
Evidence suggests that wide, undefined point ranges encourage arbitrary scoring.
The site also limits the number of levels that can be created in each type of scale. Student self-evaluation is a very important part of the assessment process. Some educators argue that empowering students to self-evaluate is the most important outcome of any learning process. Teachers who want to upload a form for student self-evaluation can use a word processor to create the form, and then upload the file as an attachment to their task. When fully implemented, the site will enable users to send feedback about individual tasks and the site in general.
