A Programmatic Ecology of Assessment: Using a Common Rubric to Evaluate Multimodal Processes and Artifacts.

Highlights: [•] Rubrics based on rhetorical factors can productively assess multimodal artifacts, such as games, in first-year composition. [•] Value, environment, and scale are important factors in the ecology of assessment. [•] An ecology of assessment values feedback from programmatic rubrics that can adapt and strengthen multimodal curricula. [•] Rubrics aid programmatic consistency, instructor workload, and self-critique. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
