Introduction
The Rubric is an authentic assessment tool which is particularly useful
in assessing criteria which are complex and subjective [40]. An authentic
assessment is geared toward assessment methods which correspond as closely
as possible to real world experience. This also corresponds to principles
of Web-Comstructivism (Basiel, A. 1999). This tool was originally developed
in the arts and apprenticeship systems, where assessment has always been based
on performance. The instructor observes the student in the process of (learning)
something, provides feedback, monitors the student's use of the feedback,
and adjusts instruction and evaluation accordingly. This formative
assessment or evaluation becomes an ongoing part of the whole teaching and
learning process (Basiel, A. 1999, [40] ).
