I have found a link to the Ontario Curriculum page which contains the "Achievement Charts" which are most likely the rubrics discussed here. I'm not comfortable enough editing articles yet but I think this should be added as a resource or a reference site: http://www.edu.gov.on.ca/eng/document/policy/achievement/
The complete title of the document is: The Ontario Curriculum – Grades 1–12: Achievement Charts (Draft), 2004
It does appear that the term "Ontario Rubric" is more of a common place phrase and not the official name of any particular document or method of assessment.

Is the rubric system different in other places? If not, then I think this should be part of Rubric, or should be at Rubric (marking scheme) (or something similar). -Frazzydee|✍ 20:28, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)
The Ontario rubric is a specific rubric.Havl 19:00, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
Yes, rubrics have become a mainstream part of many educational institutions. Rubrics can have many forms, often invented by the teacher solely to fit the needs of a certain assignment. They are often used in high school, where teachers have a limited amount of time to teach many requirements, to show students the requirements for a project and how important each one is. Sometimes no other explanation will be given but the rubric. Often teachers will issue their rubric and have the students turn it in with the project; they will then return the rubric with the grade filled in for each segment. Sometimes rubrics are simple, like the Ontario rubric, and have only a few sections, but sometimes the sections take up pages and are weighted in tenths of points. Most lengthy rubrics are assigned points to add up to one hundred and so be very easily converted into percentage grades. Does anyone know the history of rubrics and how they became so commonly used in schools?
Unclear Text
[edit]In the main article, the relationship between the four unnumbered list items under the line "The rows are typically broken into four strands:" and the four items under the line "They can also be organized into sections for projects like this:" does not appear to be clear.
In example, the Knowledge/Understanding item from the first quad does not match up with the Information and Understanding item in the second quad, as far as placement goes. Since the other three items are much more subjectively connected it is unclear what the relationship is.

"largely relies on one source"
[edit]updated citations to accurately reflect up-to-date information from the ministry of education
removed thing about largely relying on one source as the citation is the only official source of information for the topic (ontario ministry of education). if anyone thinks of any more please feel free to update! Slightlyjealous (talk) 16:58, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
