How do I use a non-scoring rubric to assess submissions in SpeedGrader?

If you have added a non-scoring rubric to an assignment, you can assess the rubric in SpeedGrader. Non-scoring rubrics contain rating criterions without point values. Unlike regular rubrics, non-scoring rubrics are not used for grading.

Be sure you have selected the Remove points from rubric option when adding a rubric to an assignment. Be sure this checkbox is selected before you begin grading submissions.

Note: If your rubric does not contain any predetermined rubric criteria, you should grade the rubric using free-form comments.
