Rubric Search Pop-Up Window

The Rubric Search pop-up window is used to select stored rubrics. This window only displays when creating a new rubric; if a rubric is already attached to the assignment, the Select Saved Rubric link will not display.

• If you want to use the stored rubric without making changes, leave this box unchecked.

Important: If you need to associate competencies with the rubric criteria, make sure you check the Create a Copy. Competencies do not copy from saved rubrics, so you need to add them after you select the rubric.

The Rubric Search pop-up shows all of your stored rubrics, and, if your building allows access, all rubrics saved as Public by teachers in your district.

Sort rubrics by column header:

Click on a column header to sort by column (Rubric, Description, or Author). Subsequent clicks on the selected header will reverse the sort direction.

Search by column:

Under each column header (Rubric, Description, or Author) a blank field lets you enter text to search for matching entries in that column. As you enter text, a drop down displays with matches from the column to let you select an expanded search string. You can either press ENTER to search based on the text you've entered so far, or click on one of the drop-down suggestions and then press ENTER to search based on the suggested matching text from the drop-down. You can search multiple columns to further narrow your search. Any rubric matching the search text is displayed. Click in the row of the rubric you wish to select/attach.

Select a rubric:

Click in the row of the rubric you wish to select/attach.

After searching/selecting a rubric, click OK to add the selected rubric and close the Rubric Search pop-up window.

To attach the selected rubric to the assignment, you must click Save on the Assignment Details drawer (Gradebook Entry) or in the Actions column of the Gradebook Setup Assignments grid.

Expand for search example:Suppose you are looking for an algebra rubric defined by your colleague Harold Hastings. In this case, you would enter algebra in the Description field, press ENTER to display all rubrics with algebra in their description, and then do the same with Hastings in the Author field to narrow the search to rubrics that contain both algebra in the Description field and Hastings in the Author field.
