ABSTRACT

Performance-based evaluation has become an essential component of contemporary education, emphasizing authentic assessment of student skills and competencies. Rubrics serve as critical tools in this process by providing structured criteria for evaluation. However, designing reliable rubrics that ensure consistency, objectivity, and validity remains a complex challenge. This study focuses on the development and psychometric analysis of reliable rubrics for performance-based evaluation. Using a mixed-method approach, the research integrates pedagogical principles with statistical validation techniques. The findings indicate that well-designed rubrics significantly enhance inter-rater reliability and improve assessment quality. The study proposes a comprehensive framework for rubric design, contributing to the advancement of educational measurement practices.
