Grading during the Evaluation Stage
As you prepare to evaluate your peers’ presentations during the Evaluation Stage in Kritik, I want to remind you of the importance of grading objectively. Your evaluations should be based solely on the criteria outlined in the rubric, not on comparisons between groups.
It’s natural to notice when one group goes above and beyond, but this should not result in lower scores for other groups that fully meet the rubric’s standards. If a group satisfies all the rubric criteria, they deserve full credit for those elements—regardless of whether another group performed exceptionally well. The rubric is the standard by which all presentations should be graded, and everyone should be evaluated fairly based on that standard.
Here are a few tips to ensure fair and objective evaluations:
1. Review the rubric thoroughly before starting the evaluation process, and keep it open while grading.
2. Focus on the content and delivery of the presentation in relation to the rubric, rather than comparing it to other presentations.
3. Provide constructive and specific feedback based on what you observe in the presentation and how it aligns with the rubric criteria.
This skill—remaining objective, supportive, and positive in evaluations—is an essential one for BCaBAs, especially when practicing in a supervisory role. As future supervisors, you will train therapists and caregivers with varying levels of skill and experience. To be effective in this role, you’ll need to focus on clear performance criteria, provide supportive feedback, and maintain a positive and professional tone, even when some individuals may exceed expectations while others are still learning. Practicing this skill now will help you excel as a leader in the future.
