1. Digital Work Assessment Rubric © Jewish Interactive 2013
Rubric for Assessment of Digital Work
Guidelines for assessment:
 Please refer to the level descriptors (http://j.mp/dwlevdesc) to become familiar with the level
criteria.
 Make a copy of, or print, the level descriptors for each student.
 After each piece of digital work highlight & date the criteria the student achieved on their level
descriptors.
This should guide the student to see what skills to focus on for next time.
 Record the point value achieved on the record sheet (http://j.mp/dwsturec) and assign a final
level according to the total value.
