提供的評估
I use a performance rubric
4- exceeds expectations
3- meets expectations
2- emerging toward expectation
1- does not meet expectations

Example: Rhythm Rubric (performance rubric)
4- The beat is secure and the rhythms are accurate for the style of music being played.	
3- The beat is secure and the rhythms are mostly accurate. There are a few duration errors, but these do not detract from the overall performance.	
2- The beat is somewhat erratic. Some rhythms are accurate. Frequent or repeated duration errors. Rhythm problems occasionally detract from the overall performance.	
1- The beat is usually erratic and rhythms are seldom accurate detracting significantly from the overall performance.
