How it works

01

Describe your assignment

Tell us about the assignment, project, or skill you're assessing. Include the grade level and any specific criteria you want evaluated.

02

AI builds the rubric

MyMap's AI generates a criteria-by-levels grid with specific performance descriptors — from excellent to developing — along with point values for each dimension.

03

Refine and export

Edit criteria, adjust performance levels, or ask AI to add more dimensions. Export as PDF to share with students or attach to assignment guidelines.

About the framework

What is a Rubric?

A rubric is an assessment tool that defines evaluation criteria and describes performance levels for each criterion in a structured grid. It makes grading transparent, consistent, and fair by replacing subjective judgment with explicit standards.

Rubrics are used in education (essays, presentations, projects), professional development (performance reviews), and quality assurance (process audits, code reviews) — anywhere consistent evaluation of complex work is needed.

Why rubrics work

  • Set clear expectations by showing students exactly what each performance level looks like
  • Ensure consistency across multiple graders evaluating the same assignment
  • Save grading time by reducing the need for lengthy written feedback on every submission
  • Guide improvement by pointing students to specific criteria where they can level up

Effective rubrics use specific, observable descriptors ("cites 5+ credible sources" not "good research") and align criteria with stated learning objectives.

MyMap's AI generates rubrics from an assignment description — with criteria rows, performance levels, and actionable descriptors organized in a grid ready to refine and distribute.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions

Is the rubric maker free?

Yes — you can create rubrics for free without signing up. Free accounts get a generous number of AI messages per month. Upgrade to Pro for unlimited rubric generation.

Can I customize the rubric after it's generated?

Absolutely. Every criterion, performance level, and descriptor is editable. You can add new rows, adjust point values, or ask AI to rewrite descriptors for a different grade level.

What types of rubrics can I create?

Any type — essay grading, presentation assessment, project evaluation, lab report scoring, coding assignment review, art portfolio critique, and more. The AI adapts criteria to your subject area.

Does it include point values?

Yes — each criterion row includes suggested point allocations that total to your desired score. You can adjust weights to emphasize the criteria that matter most for your learning objectives.

Can I use this for K-12 and higher education?

Yes — specify the grade level in your prompt and the AI adjusts language complexity and criteria accordingly. It works for elementary rubrics, high school assessments, and university-level evaluations.
