AAC&U VALUE Rubrics
The VALUE rubrics listed below were developed by teams of faculty experts representing colleges and universities across the United States through a process that examined many existing campus rubrics and related documents for each learning outcome and incorporated additional feedback from faculty. The rubrics articulate fundamental criteria for each learning outcome, with performance descriptors demonstrating progressively more sophisticated levels of attainment. The AAC&U VALUE Rubrics include the following:
- Civic Engagement
- Creative Thinking
- Critical Thinking
- Ethical Reasoning
- Global Learning
- Information Literacy
- Inquiry Analysis
- Integrative Learning Value Rubric
- Intercultural Knowledge Competence
- Lifelong Learning
- Oral Communication
- Problem Solving
- Quantitative Literacy
- Reading
- Teamwork
- Written Communication
