Kate Dermody: ”Why Rubrics Matter”

Hi, my name is Kate Dermody: I am a history teacher at SUNY Empire State College. I have been a teacher for the last 15 years.  I have previously taught in secondary education and at alternative programs such as Upward Bound.  Today I am going to speak about the importance of clarity and transparency in education, the value of using a rubric especially in the online setting with adult and nontraditional students.
