How do I manage rubrics in an account using Enhanced Rubrics?
You can create, edit, delete, archive, and duplicate rubrics for instructors to use across your institution. Instructors can add account-level rubrics to their assignments, graded discussions, and quizzes. Instructors can also create their own rubrics in their courses.
Notes:
- The Assignment Enhancements feature option must be enabled for students to view the updated rubric interface.
