#1: Open an assignment in your course. Click the +Rubric button at the bottom left (highlighted yellow in this screenshot)
QUIZZES: For quizzes, click the Options icon, select Show Rubric, and click the Add Rubric button. While rubrics attached to quizzes cannot be used for grading, some instructors may prefer to offer additional feedback using a rubric. Quiz scores override the rubric calculation and feedback.
#2: Either select an existing rubric or create a new one.
Use existing rubric: click the "Find a Rubric" button at the top right. Select desired rubric then click, "Use this Rubric" at the bottom.
Create new rubric: use the editing pencils to enter all rubric information, click applicable settings then click "Create Rubric" at the bottom
***REMEMBER*** Click the "Use this rubric for assignment grading" if you want the rubric to be clickable in Speedgrader for easy grading!
Click "Rubrics" on the lefthand menu to view all existing rubrics in your course
If you're using the same rubric on multiple assignments and discover an error, your best bet is to REMOVE all the rubrics from all the assignments. Then click "Rubrics" from the course menu and make your edits to the rubric. Then go to each of the assignments and RE-ADD the corrected rubric. (Editing one rubric that's used in multiple places will NOT apply those edits to all the other instances the rubric is used in other assignments!)
Example: You're using the same rubric for all Discussion Boards. You notice an error, so you edit the rubric for Discussion #1 and save it. If you click on the other discussion board assignments, you will find the old, incorrect version of the rubric still remains.
If you delete a rubric after using it to grade a submission, the score will remain even though the rubric will disappear.
