Holistic Rubrics are broad ranging such as state standards:
4- Exceeds Standard
3- Meets Standard
2- Approaching Standard
1- Needs Improvement
(or any general variation)
Another example:

Holistic Rubrics can also be more specific such as by subject area.

Analytic rubrics are created specific to a task, standard, or skill.

This link has a few clear examples of the two types:

Below is an example I've created based on our state standards and assessment instruction I received from Dr. Sheila Valencia @ UW. I am working on creating observation rubrics across content areas to help create a quick and easy visual of where kids are for differentiated grouping. I'd be happy to post the matrix on the tools page for people who are interested. It's difficult to describe here, but I've shared it with many staff members who find it much quicker and easier to use rather than having to search through alphabetic class checklists to create instructional groups. Also, it takes some time and thought to create these rubrics, but I think it is well worth the effort because I have a much clearer picture of what I am looking for from students after following this process and find the information very useful in many ways such as grouping, grading, guiding my instruction, and communicating specific targets skills to parents.

If you use it to create new rubrics for grades 2-5, please share back. Thanks!

Analytic Example-

Target Skill:
to write a friendly letter w/ five parts
Standard(s):
Applies punctuation rules.
.       Uses comma after greeting and closing of friendly letter.
Demonstrates understanding of different purposes for writing.
. Writes for own purposes (e.g., communicates with friends, reminders to self). . Writes to learn (e.g., science notebooks, class notes, summaries of nonfiction or literary passages). . Writes to explain (e.g., tells which grade was a favorite and explains why, explains why a bar graph is a better choice than a pie chart to display data, explains why an apple is a better snack than a candy bar).

Advanced (4)
Looks like:
.       five parts included w/o error
.       paragraph format w/ indents
.       varying sentence length (two or fewer CUPS errors)
Benchmark (3)
Looks like:
.       five parts included (missing commas okay)
.       paragraph format
.       complete sentences (few CUPS errors)
Strategic (2)
Looks like:
.       five parts (some errors or confusion)
.       paragraph format or list
.       complete sentences, some CUPS errors
Intensive (1)
Looks like:
.       five parts included w/o error

Subject: [MOSAIC] analytic versus holistic rubrics




Our district is encouraging the use of rubrics. An interesting question came up - when would it be appropriate to use a holistic versus an analytic rubric?


Any thoughts?
