Manage rubrics

Access a rubric's menu to edit, copy, or delete the rubric. You can also View Associated Content to view the items a rubric is associated with.


You can copy a rubric if you have a similar gradable item for your students that will use the same criteria. You can keep the settings and rename the rubric. You can also copy a rubric when you want to edit a rubric that's in use. A copy is created with the same title and the number 1 added: "Introductory Speech(1)."

Manage associated rubrics

When you edit an item with an associated rubric, you can change the rubric's options.

Associated Rubrics options


In the Associated Rubrics section, you have these management functions:

  • Remove Rubric Association removes the connection to a rubric but doesn't delete the rubric itself. You can remove a rubric from an assessment you've graded and the grades will remain. The grades are no longer associated with the rubric, but now appear as grades you added manually.
  • View Rubric opens a preview you can't edit, with a link to view associated items and print the rubric.
  • Edit Rubric opens the associated rubric so you can edit it. If you've already used the rubric for grading, you can't edit it.
