Rubric suitable for formative and summative assignments with tasks involving the rigorous analysis of a text or texts.
Use this rubric when asking students to analyze an author's use of rhetorical strategies, to analyze the impact of a literary element in a story, etc.

Consider using the 9th-12th Grade Analysis QuickMark set with this rubric. These drag-and-drop comments were tailor-made by veteran educators to give actionable, formative feedback directly to students. While they were explicitly aligned to this particular rubric, you can edit or add your own content to any QuickMark.

This rubric is available and ready to use in your Feedback Studio account. However, if you would like to customize its criteria, you can "Duplicate this rubric" in your Feedback Studio account and then edit the rubric as needed. Or, download this .rbc file and then import to your account to begin editing the content.
