Grading with rubrics and grading forms

In this guide:

There are two ways to grade with a rubric or grading form. You can grade from the side panel or the full-size rubric/form viewer.

From the side panel

  1. From the online grading toolbar, select the rubric icon to open the Rubric/Form side panel.

    2. For grading forms, you can add comments to the comment fields and set a numerical score (if enabled on the form template).
  3. Once you have set your scores, select Apply to grade at the top of the side panel.

From the full-size view

The full-size view displays your rubric or form in a separate window and allows you to grade papers more efficiently. The student you are currently grading can be seen in the top right-hand corner of the expanded view. You can navigate to other students using the standard navigation options and continue to grade each student that has submitted to the assignment.

  1. From the online grading toolbar, select the rubric icon to open the Rubric/Form side panel.
  2. Select the four arrows icon at the top right of the rubric or grading form title.

  4. When finished, select Apply to Grade at the bottom right.

    While you can assign decimal values to a rubric once applied to a grade the decimal will be rounded to the nearest whole number.

  5. To continue grading other student papers in the expanded view, use the navigation arrows in the Feedback Studio, or use the navigation dropdown to select a specific paper. This will automatically change the paper you are scoring in the full-size view.
