Using this matrix, a better feedback can be obtained. However, sometimes it isrecommended to derive a holistic rubric from the detailed rubric. A holistic rubric allows you toasses different skills of the students for accreditation purposes once or twice rather than on eachexperimental session. For example, sometimes writing skills are more important than designingan experiment or student competencies with laboratory equipment.
