What I especially like about it can be seen near the end of the video when the teacher gets a report on how often each aspect of the rubric was used in his/her grading. That kind of feedback could really help you decide on what students really don't seem to yet understand about research or APA style. Say what you will about the overabundance of technology tools, this one really shines in the way it can provide information to you that you probably would not have seen even after hours and hours of grading.
