Then, under each heading -- labeled with the individual name of the subtask -- I'll put in a filler paragraph with junk text, just to keep my formatting. Underneath that filler paragraph, I'll write my notes in red, along with whatever the highest-scoring criteria is for that particular section of the rubric. Then, as I'm writing my paper, section by section, I have my notes right there in the document so that I don't have to switch back and forth between several screens, and I have my criteria for success right in front of me.
For each task I have a printed copy of the Rubric in front of me, I go over the reading materials with the rubric and screen clip useful information into OneNote for access later. Once I am done gathering all the necessary information I have OneNote opened up on one monitor and my paper opened up on another monitor and I start typing from there. I do a final check with the rubric just to make sure I answered everything.
