Systematic Review of Rubric Ontology in Higher Education

Assessing students is a common practice in educational settings. Students will be evaluated using several methods or tools to determine how well they have acquired knowledge or progressed. There are two distinct types of assessment is summative and formative. Rubrics are used to evaluate student performance. However, the development of the rubric is challenging because subject-matter expertise is required. Ontology has been utilized in certain research to communicate knowledge relevant to rubrics, but these studies do not map to the important learning outcomes. Rubrics are developed in Malaysia to support outcome-based education (OBE) based on the Malaysia Qualification Framework (MQF). It is essential to discover if the technology supports rubrics that leverage learning outcomes to produce the best possible rubric. A systematic review of the literature (SLR) was used to carry out this analysis. In the years 2018 through 2022, 42 papers were reviewed. In conclusion, the key finding of this work is that rubric-based outcome learning is the most recent research area to get attention and that only a small number of studies have used ontologies to develop rubrics based on learning outcomes.
