Rubrics - The PLAID Criteria

PLAID (Peer-Led Analysis of Instructional Design) provides guidelines for strong Canvas courses. This module will address the following PLAID criteria: 

Content and Outcomes

  • Learning outcomes and course activities are aligned
  • Student has access to accurate grade to date
  • Individual assignment rubrics/grading criteria articulate instructor's expectations

Communication and Interaction

  • All students receive regular, timely feedback about their performance
  • Feedback provided is substantive: specific, measurable, attainable, results-oriented, and time-bound

For more information on the PLAID Rubric, and how it works, see the PLAID page on the Instructional Design website.
