Summary, etc. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of student- generated and te acher- provided instructional rubrics on the writing achievement of intermediate foreign language learners. In addition, the study examined whether using rubric s affected females and males' writing achievement differently or not. The sample in this study consisted of 74 eighth grade students whose English was their sec ond language and who were enrolled in a private school in Mt. Lebanon. Two secti ons of grade eight were randomly assigned to a writing treatment. Section A, 22 students, received the student- generated rubric treatment. Section B, 24 students, received the ru bric treatment while section C, 28 students, served as the comparable teacher-pr ovided group. Sections A and B received the same kind of instruction in writing a descriptive essay before they wrote their pretest. The difference between them was the treat ment itself, only. To examine whether the use of the rubric differed according t o gender, a t- test was run. The results showed that when the writing achievement of both females and ma les who use rubrics is compared, females perform better. To examine the effect o f and teacher- provided rubrics, an ANCOVA test was run followed by student-gene rated a post hoc test. It was concluded that when the effect of the two treatmen ts on students' achievement were compared, the only statistically significant di fference in the means was that between the students who used the teacher- genera ted rubric and those who received the traditional teacher feedback. The differen ce between the means of students who generated the rubrics and the means of thos e who used the teacher- provided rubric was not statistically significant. The s ame was true for the difference between the means of the student- generated rubr ic group and the group that received traditional teacher feedback. The results a re discussed and recommendations for further research are suggested.
