[Rubrics] Percentage-based Rubrics

[jeastabrooks]

I'd like to see the rubrics within Canvas support percentages rather than fixed points. Like many instructors, I'm constantly tinkering my point distribution to ensure both a challenging environment and equity in the classroom. Having the ability to change the final point value in a single area and then have the rubric be applied based on percentages rather than points would make this MUCH easier.

Problem statement:

When you have a rubric that can be used in different activities (even in different courses), you have to adapt it to the points of each activity. This implies extra work for the instructor/teacher, such as creating a copy of the original rubric, and also adapting the points for each activity.

Proposed solution:

If we could have the option of grading the ratings of a rubric using a percentage, the same rubric it could be used in different activities with different total points, without having to modify the rubric points for each activity.
