Abstract

This chapter is a reflective study reporting on a College-wide common rubrics initiative in a Technological University (TU) in Ireland. Assessment and feedback are enduring issues for the higher education sector both in Ireland (as well as internationally). By addressing these priorities, we are focusing on the connected areas of marking practices and feedback processes in a College of Business. The chapter highlights the collaborative nature of an initiative on programmatic assessment design, its breadth of scope, and the high levels of support provided to staff and students through the design process. In particular, rubrics are the main focus of the chapter with an overview of Programme Learning Outcome (PLO) mapping provided as part of the context. Four interdisciplinary rubric working teams were formed across the College of Business to develop common rubrics in the areas of reflective practice, critical thinking, individual/group presentation skills and industry consultancy projects.
