Manage rubrics

Edit a rubric

Any changes made to an existing rubric will apply to all materials in the course that use that rubric.

  • To change a rubric for a specific item, create a new rubric instead of adjusting an existing one.

  • Changes made to a rubric do not affect copies of the rubric you have added to other courses.

Click the rubric’s name in Grade Setup or from the Edit option after clicking the gear icon.

  • Add additional columns to the scale by hovering over a cell and clicking the + icon that appears.

  • Change the points and descriptions for individual grading scale levels by clicking their respective fields and updating them.

  • Remove a row or column by hovering over the cell and clicking the x icon that appears.

  • Reorder the rows by clicking the bars and dragging the row to the appropriate location.
