VERANO-TACORONTE, DOMINGO et al. ASSESSMENT OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTS’ ORAL COMMUNICATION COMPETENCE THROUGH A RELIABLE AND VALID SCORING RUBRIC. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2016, vol.21, n.64, pp.39-60. ISSN 1809-449X. https://doi.org/10.1590/S1413-24782016216403.
The new university educational model fosters the equipping of students with the right competences. Oral communication competence is one of the most important ones demanded for the employability of university graduates. There are several evaluation criteria to assess this competence, so it is important to unify them. Therefore, it is crucial to develop validated scoring rubrics. Rubrics allow assessing the quality of students’ contributions as well as guiding their performance by specifying the factors that will be evaluated. To achieve the main objective of this paper, we describe the development process of a scoring rubric and analyze its validity and reliability based on its implementation. Therefore, we undertake a practical experiment in the subject, industrial organization and business administration in an industrial engineering degree course. Consequently, our findings revealed that the scoring rubric is a valid and reliable tool to assess oral communication competence.
