How do you decide what grade to give an assignment? Depends on what it is.
A "rubric" is a scoring system that is used to judge a student´s performance. Rubrics are used for in-depth projects, creative writing... anything where you can`t just mark the answers wrong and count them up.

Here is a sample rubric, so you can "get a feel" for what they are, and how to develop one.
