How rubrics relate to your grade


Rubrics are used to assess your achievement on assignments in your course, based on predefined achievement levels and assessment criteria. They help ensure that activities are evaluated fairly and consistently, and enable you to view the grading criteria in advance of submitting assignments.

Sample rubric

Rubrics are associated directly with Assignment submission folders, so you can view the criteria used to assess your assignment when you submit your work. Your instructor can enter personalized feedback for you on the rubric, which will appear to you in the feedback area of the folder.
