Make the rubrics tool more flexible

In a higher ed setting you wan´t to adjust the tool so that there are differens rubrics with different levels or criteria per rubric (for example when you want to use the tool for formative assessment and wan´t to design different criteria for different rubrics) This is not possible today which make the tool very stiff. It is a pity as the tool in a first glance seemed to fit our setting but when having tried it out we se that it is not. Frustrating and a bit on the down side for the system.

    The issue as described by Jennifer baffled us too. We have different assignments within a course to grade different aspects from the same learning objective. Now we are forced to grade all aspects in one assignment. This truly plays down the effectiveness of this otherwise useful tool.

    I agree with both comments. The tool is very stiff right now and the inflexibility keeps many teachers from using it.

    I agree with Anna.  Criteria should be selected per assignment.  For example a standard may have 4 criteria however the assignment is only measuring 3 of them.  When you add the standard to the assignment all 4 criteria are added.  If you delete the one you are not using, it deletes from the entire course and the standard overall.  Very frustrating.
