Score-based rubrics help your school evaluate student work using a points-based scale. Each criterion is assigned a score range, and teachers select the score that best represents the student’s performance.
All score-based rubric templates created here become part of your school’s assessment tool library and are available for teachers to use while creating tasks.
What can I do on this page?
Use this page to create and manage score-based rubric templates for your school.
When creating a new score-based rubric: Add Criteria (rows) using Add row. Define descriptions for each criterion. Set the point values for each level. The maximum score for the rubric if updated accordingly. Rearrange or delete rows using the trash icons. Click Save to add the rubric to your school’s assessment tool templates. Edit default levels to update the names of criteria levels (e.g., Beginning, Developing, Emerging, Proficient). These updates apply only to new score-based rubrics. Search to quickly find a rubric by name. Use the Actions menu (three dots) to edit, preview, duplicate, or delete a score-based rubric. Things to keep in mind
Score-based rubrics created here become available to teachers when they build assessments in their classes. Editing default levels does not update levels in any rubrics that have already been created or used by teachers in tasks; it only applies to new rubrics. Editing a rubric template does not change the rubric inside existing tasks where it has already been used. Deleting a score-based rubric removes it from the list of templates available for new tasks, but it does not affect any existing tasks where the rubric has already been used. Teachers can also create their own score-based rubrics within the class and optionally save them to the school template library.
