Due to the wide coverage of the framework, we had to deal with manydifferent areas related to higher education. The following strategies are adopted to insure theadequacy and verify the developed rubrics:  Interviews with experts  External reviews  Comparisons with existing rubrics  Developing a rich and standardized set of rubric descriptorsThe measurements could be interpreted per criteria, KPM, KPI, and/or combined forms. The 5-point rubric scale of KPIs – Nascent, Beginning, Developing, Competent, and Accomplished ismapped onto constant values (6.25, 12.5, 37.5, 62.5

This grand idea was brought to a halt when upon installing the driversoftware, it crashed his computer and every time the receiver was plugged in it also wouldcrash. This meant that the nearly 8 year old technology could not be used and should bereplaced by a more modern solution.
