Speech AND Outline Grading Rubric (Primary Evaluation)
This is the rubric for grading the speeches and the outline in COMM 101. It is designed in a manner
to ONLY have you interact with the Rubric when something is missed. This should speed/simplify
your time and feedback to students. See below – but of course – you are still free to enter
“comments” once you hit a button. This allows you to still enter “positive” feedback per item or
toward the end of the rubric in the “Feedback to Learner” section. _____Make sure you start by
entering in the Full 150 Points on the first rubric item. _____The rest of the rubric will be used to
“deduct” points where appropriate. Or, you can select, “-0” to open the comments for that item.
_____ Penalty Items must be entered “manually a.k.a via overide”.
