Annotation: This paper presents a rubric-based formative assessment methodology encompassing all six levels of Bloom's taxonomy, designed for the stepwise development and objective evaluation of hydrological-statistical competencies in future engineers. The developed rubric comprises nine criteria organised into operative, cognitive, and creative competency clusters, validated through psychometric indicators (Cronbach α = 0.87; ICC = 0.83; CVR = 0.78). Experimental validation involving 94 students confirmed the cumulative competency formation pattern: operative (weeks 2–3), cognitive (weeks 6–8), and creative (weeks 14–15). The methodology aligns with ABET accreditation standards and is applicable across diverse engineering education contexts.

Keywords: Bloom's taxonomy, rubric, formative assessment, hydrological-statistical competency, operative criterion, cognitive criterion, creative criterion, engineering education, ABET standards, psychometric analysis.
