Uploading comments

Prepare Your File:

• Create a plain text (.txt) file in Excel or Google Sheets.

• Format your file as tab-separated values with these headers:
  Criterion, Levels

  1. 1. 1. Criterion - As it appears in the Description of the criteria. 

        2. Levels - In the order of the scale as appears in the rubric

Example:

Fill in your feedback comments. You can:

• Use **bold** formatting

• Add links using [[text:label; link:URL]]

Download as .tsv:
Go to File → Download → Tab-separated values (.tsv)
(This preserves the format for use with Rubric2Feedback.)

Rename to .txt. (Excel supports exporting directly to TXT however google sheets does not support this)

The Summary Statement row (optional)

the Summary Statement row in your Rubric2Feedback file is a special row, and it works differently from the others. It must be placed at the bottom of the table. The criterion name (Column A) should be exactly: Summary Statement

Each column (Level 1 to Level 5) contains a summary comment corresponding to that level.

When a user selects cells in the rubric, Rubric2Feedback calculates the average level and uses this Summary Statement to insert a general comment like:

• “Overall a low pass”

• “Overall a high fail, more work to do.”
