A rubric is a scoring device that includes the criteria and standards used to evaluate student work (Lund, 2000). Physical education has always used performance as a basis of assessment, but in some instances, without a rubric or scoring guide (Lund, 2000). A rubric can be constructed and used for assessing students' skill levels and/or performances. Designing and using a rubric may expand the level of communication between the teacher and student regarding expectation of performance. In this article, the author describes the simple 5-step process for physical education teachers who are relatively new to designing rubrics. The rubrics discussed are: (1) for assessing a homework assignment in a fitness unit; (2) a generic rubric for assessing skills; and (3) a rubric for assessing the forearm pass in volleyball.
