This sample rubric resource offers a diverse collection of skills-based and task-specific rubrics. Feel free to explore and adapt these samples to suit your discipline or assessment needs.
We aim to create a comprehensive repository of resources for the ANU community. To help us achieve this, we encourage our ANU colleagues to share their rubrics. The rubric doesn’t need to be perfect—our educational designers at CLT are here to support you in refining and enhancing your rubric design. If you want to share your rubric or want support on rubric design, contact us at clt@anu.edu.au.
