How to Grade Reflective Writing
STEP 1
Understand your assignment and limitations
How many students are in the class? How much time do you have to grade their work? Was the assignment short or long?


STEP 2
Determine how you will grade
For formal reflective writing assignments, there are two ways to grade. You can grade them for participation or based on a rubric. If you are trying to decide which route to take, consider your responses to the first step, especially regarding class size and time.
STEP 3
Grade your assignments
Stick to your plan and grade the assignments based on that.


STEP 4
Reflect on your grading process
What worked? What didn’t work? What changes can you make to improve grading your student’s work?
