      8. Use Non-Scoring Rubric to Assess Submissions

      Use Non-Scoring Rubric to Assess Submissions

      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.

      1. Open SpeedGrader from any assignment, graded discussion, or quiz.

      2. Use the student list to locate a student submission.

      3. Click the View Rubric button.

      View Rubric Button_SpeedGrader

      To view the entire rubric window, you may need to scroll both vertically and horizontally. To resize the rubric window, click and drag the sizing column horizontally.

      Resize Rubric_SpeedGrader

      Complete Rubric

      For each criterion, click the rating that applies to the student's submission [1].

      You can also add a comment for each rubric criterion by clicking the Comment icon [2].

      Note: To deselect a rating, click the rating assigned [3].
