Grading with rubrics
Goals:
This guide describes how to use rubrics to perform assessments with criteria you define yourself. You will learn how to create criteria and levels for a rubric and set them as an assessment method and how to perform an exemplary assessment with rubrics in an assignment.
Difficulty: intermediate
Valid from Moodle Version 4.2
Preparation: Create an assignment
To follow the steps of this guide, there should already be an assignment created. If no assignment is available yet, the guide "Create and grade assignment" shows how to set up an assignment.

1. Define "rubric" as the grading method in the assignment
In the section "Grade" of the assignment's settings, please select the entry "Rubric" in the drop-down menu for the parameter "Grading method" (1). Then enter the maximum points (2) and finally click on the button "Save and display" at the bottom of the window.


2. Create new grading form
You will be asked to create a new rubric. Here, please click the button "Create a new grading form from scratch".


3. Create criterion
First, assign a title in the field "name" and optionally an explanation in the field "description" for the rubric. Then define the individual criteria of the assessment in the section "Rubric". Proceed as follows for each criterion:
The name of the criterion is entered in the first column "Click to edit criterion" (1).
Then open the editing view of the individual level by clicking in the field "Click to edit level" (2).
Now you can enter a name for this level (3) and assign points by clicking on the numerical value (4):
Set the names and points for the other levels as well (5).
If you need more levels, please click the button "Add level" in the criterion row (6). To delete levels, please click on the delete icons "X" (7).
Important: At the beginning a rubric consists of only one criterion. By clicking on the button "Add criterion" (8), additional criteria can be created.


4. Additional settings
Several criteria have now been added (1). To change the order of the criteria, please use the arrow keys "up" or "down" (2). If you want to delete a criterion, please click the delete icon "X" (3). If you want to copy a finished criterion, please click on the copy icon (4).
The section "Options" shows an overview of additional settings of the rubric. By clicking on the checkmarks, the individual options can be activated or deactivated respectively.
Once all settings have been made, please save the rubric by clicking on the button "Save rubric and make it ready".


5. Perform sample grading using "rubrics"
Please navigate to the assignment and display the grading view of a students submission (these steps are described in the guide "The assignments module" from step 2.1. onwards).
Here you can now grade the assessment with the rubrics. On the right, in the "Assessment" section, select the respective level for each criterion by clicking it (1). Your selection will be highlighted in green. Optionally enter a comment on the criterion to the right of the level (2). To save the grading with the rubrics, finally click on "Save changes" (3).


Tip: In case the display of the rubrics is insufficient for the evaluation, you can detach the section with the individual rubrics directly from the overview by clicking on the "crossed arrow" - symbol (1). The rubrics will then be displayed in full in a separate window (2). As soon as you are finished with the grading, you can reintegrate the view into the grading overview by clicking on the same symbol (3).
