Details	One of the most important roles of English teachers is providing feedback to students. One common way to give feedback is through rubrics, but traditional rubrics are often difficult for students to understand. This presentation introduces how teachers can co-create effective rubrics with students that reflect their values and goals, and how these rubrics can be used to help students develop as writers.
