Distinct criteria
Each criterion rewards a different observable dimension: no double-counting the same behavior.
Training and L&D
Describe the assignment and get a complete grading rubric: distinct criteria, concrete level descriptions, points, and weights.
What it does
The generator applies the rules good rubric designers follow, so two graders using it land on the same score.
Each criterion rewards a different observable dimension: no double-counting the same behavior.
Adjacent level descriptions use concrete differences in place of a "good, very good, excellent" ladder.
Optional per-level points on one scale, with criterion weights that sum to 100.
How to use it
In depth
A rubric exists to make grading consistent and expectations visible. It fails at both when its level descriptions are adjectives in a trench coat: "good organization", "very good organization": because no two graders draw the line between adjectives in the same place, and no learner can act on them.
The fix is behavioral language. "Ideas follow a stated structure, and each section links to the next" describes something a grader can observe and a learner can do; "well organized" describes a feeling. The generator is instructed to write every cell at that standard, and to make adjacent levels differ in observable ways: what is present, what is missing, how often.
Each criterion must measure a separate behavior. If communication and presentation style both reward clear speech, the rubric scores one behavior twice. The generator creates distinct criteria, and the weight column shows the priority of each one.
Treat the generated rubric as a draft. Compare the top level with work that meets your standard, then make each description precise. The generator provides distinct criteria, separate levels, and explicit weights.
Questions
Anything gradeable: essays, presentations, lab work, code reviews, customer calls, practical skills demonstrations. Describe the work and the audience, and the criteria follow.
Four criteria and four levels suit most assignments. Go to three levels for quick checks, five for high-stakes grading where fine distinctions matter.
This mode includes criteria and level descriptions with no points or weights. It is useful for formative feedback.
