The best part of this rubric isn't Clarence's rubric (although I think it's a great start) but the other rubrics that are shared in the comments, especially Delores Gende's stuff "http://bit.ly/bRZw7V"

Some How tos in deveoping rubrics for communications.

From Karen Frankler of the University of Wisconsin. Looks like it was designed for college, but easily adapted for upper high school, and nice framework for others.

I just spent the day working with teachers at WCHS and we talked about adding the NASA podcast to a wiki for students to respond to during each quarter and I would add this kind of site as a useful resource that would let a student make connections between different topics/concepts they have been studying and "real life" science. I don't think you would ever know exactly what you would get here, which is why I like it. Let the students really work and explore on their own to make connections. As a teacher, let the students create a rubric with you, model an example for them and one with them, and then put the idea out there as a long term project that you touch base on on occasion. Thoughts/responses?

Good resources for accountable talk rubrics from simple to more in-depth models.
