Holistic Scoring
Definition: The assignment of a score based on an overall impression of a performance or product rather than a consideration of individual elements. The overall judgment is typically guided by descriptions of the various levels of performance or scoring rubrics.
Use: Guided by scoring rubrics that clarify what each level of quality is like.
Provides: global judgment of the performance or product.
Examples: creative writing, works of art
REMINDER: For an evaluation of the student’s final level of performance (holistic is preferred)
*For most instructional purposes, both holistic and analytic scoring are useful. Where both are used, the global judgment should be made first so some specific element does not distort the general impression of the product.
