Some criteria of achievement, such as complex thinking and contextually-sensitive performance, cannot really be measured with validity by objective ratings. Valid assessment of such qualities requires the developed subjective awareness of an experienced professional. Hence the challenge is to make the subjective assessment more reliable.

Learnyst quiz maker provides you the option you just wanted. You can create subjective assessment for your students.

Subjective assessment draws upon the instructor’s professionally developed awareness of quality in academic or other work. This may be essential for assessing with validity, because some outcomes require sensitivity to context and thus cannot be assessed in a fixed way across contexts.

This Learnyst feature release can increase reliability in subjective assessment. When translating your grading policy into specific assessment, you want to ground your subjective judgment in a way that is consistent with your general criteria and also clear enough for students to understand it, perhaps with feedback and chances to apply it themselves.
