Subjective Work; Objective Clarity 
Building a rubric allows a teacher to visualize the “A” product. It also diffuses the focus of evaluation across the spectrum of capabilities within a group of students. As teachers determine the qualities of “B,” “C,” and “D” products, they invest thought in the assignment, which builds validity and connection to the curriculum for all students, weak or strong. While rubrics strengthen teacher assessment, the creation of rubrics also provides an opportunity for teachers to predict problem areas before the problems arise.
