Evaluation of Academic Research Projects in the Baccalaureate: Development of a Comprehensive Rubric
Abstract
Academic projects play a crucial role in high school by providing students with the knowledge to interpret, discuss, and present results, as well as strengthening their abilities, skills, and attitudes to design, develop, and implement scientific investigations. With this objective in mind, a rubric was designed and validated to evaluate academic projects, based on existing instruments. The experts who reviewed and improved the rubric made suggestions that showed that most of the items had Aiken's V values greater than 0.80, improving two items that did not reach the optimal value in terms of their relevance and writing. During the application of the test to students and professors, Cronbach's Alpha reliability coefficients of 0.934 and 0.927 were obtained, respectively. In conclusion, the elements that make up this rubric are relevant for its use in the evaluation of research projects. Its development and validation guarantee an effective tool to measure and evaluate the performance of students in the academic field of the baccalaureate.
