AAC&U’s Rubrics: Valid Assessment of Learning in Undergraduate Education (VALUE)

Diverse teams of faculty and other academic and student affairs professionals from a wide range of institutions has drafted and revised institutional-level rubrics (and related materials) to correspond with the AAC&U "Essential Learning Outcomes." Each VALUE rubric contains the most broadly shared criteria or core characteristics  considered to be critical for judging the quality of student work in a particular outcome area, including: intellectual/practical skills (such as critical thinking and  communication), personal and social responsibility (such as civic engagement and ethical reasoning), and integrative and applied learning.
