If there is one valuable time-saving tip I would provide new teachers when they create unit and summative assessment projects, it would be to fully embrace the power of project-based learning rubrics. When I was a Student Teacher Supervisor at Bloomsburg University in Pennsylvania, I devoted an entire class to teach the art and science of rubric creation. When project rubrics are drafted and designed with the end product or result in mind, as well as keeping your students at the forefront, the rubric becomes a helpful catalyst to produce the best project submissions from our students.

This podcast episode shares the content that university class offered my twelve student teachers who were very excited to do everything right and well to impress their host teachers. I'm also providing you some of the rubric techniques as “secrets” I learned along the way that I did not learn in my college classes or textbooks.
