Chappuis Guidelines
 Number of levels depends on learning target and
intended use of the rubric.
 Some rubrics may have 4 levels but an odd
number (3 or 5) can work well for simpler targets
or when the descriptors more accurately represent
the strengths and problems in student work.
(Chappuis, 2015)
