How to Create a Rubric

  1. Select the assignment and toggle the "Rubric" button in the top right corner.

2. Click "Create New Rubric" to generate a rubric with several criteria and descriptions across 4 levels.

3. Customize the rubric as needed

  • Criteria titles – Define what will be evaluated.

  • Level headings – Label performance levels (e.g., Excellent, Fair, Needs Improvement).

  • Descriptions – Add clear explanations for each performance level.

  • Point values – Assign weights to criteria.

  • Arrangement of performance levels (Ascending or Descending)

Note that criteria headings can be seen by students once the activity has started. The descriptions will become available once the activity is finished and being graded.

Grading

After the activity’s due date has passed, you can open a student’s submission and grade it using the rubric criteria. A grading panel will appear on the right side of the screen, in the space where the AI assistant typically resides.

For each criterion, drag the slider along the number line to assign the appropriate number of points based on the student’s work. Repeat this process for all criteria.

When all criteria have been scored, the student’s total score will be automatically calculated. To finalize the evaluation, click Post Grades. This action saves your scoring and releases the grade to the student.

Once a grade has been posted, it will also appear in the class list for the corresponding assignment. Grades are displayed in the column located between the assignment status and the authenticity score.
