Creating and Editing Your Rubric
Here are some quick steps to help you create your rubric. hide/show
  • You can edit the Rating Scale (4,3,2,1) by entering in your values for each Column Heading.
  • Use the pull-down menu in the first row to select the category you want to appear first in your rubric. Then, choose the pull-down menu in the second row to select the second category.
  • You don't have to use all the categories. If you do not use some categories, there should be blank rows at the bottom of your rubric that read "- Please Choose -" in the pull-down menu.
  • If you wish to have your own customized Rubric Rows, simply leave the drop-down menu to read "- Please Choose -" and enter in a new rubric row name into the text field. Next, supply the content in each of the text area boxes for that particular rubric row.
  • You can edit the rubric by making changes (add text, change text, delete text) in the text area boxes in any row. Note that if you change one box, you will probably want to make similar changes in the other boxes in that same row.
  • When you are done customizing your rubric, click on the "Submit" button at the bottom of the form.
  • You will be able to print, download your rubric, or make your rubric available online. If you decide to save it, you will be asked to register or log-in. There is no fee for this.
