Rubrics

Rubrics align assignments with a set of criteria and outcomes. One way for teachers to effectively evaluate an assignment is by attaching a rubric. Rubrics add ease to grading, as well as, and additional functionality in the SpeedGrader. Instructors often use rubrics more than admins.

However, creating rubrics at the admin levels allow instructors to leverage pre-exisiting rubrics (templates) within the courses that exist within those account and sub-accounts.

Here's what you should know about Rubrics:

Rubrics can include criteria and outcomes in them.

Rubrics created at the account levels are templates only. Instructors can attach them to an assignment and modify the rubrics from there. (This does not change the template rubric at the account level).

Rubrics can be attached to graded assignments, graded quizzes, and graded discussions.

Rubrics (once attached to an assignment) can be seen via the Speedgrader.

There is no limit to the number of Rubrics you can have at the root or sub-account levels.
