Always view rubric in speedgrader

[cmuir]

When an assignment has a rubric to use for grading enabled, is there a way to have that rubric automatically open when you view assignments in speedgrader?  If I've enabled a rubric to use for grading, then I want it available for grading on each assignment, without having to select to view it on every individual student.

There is no option to open the rubric automatically.

However, if you have access (normally, you will need admin access) to upload custom Javascript (https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Admin-Guide/How-do-I-upload-custom-JavaScript-and-CSS-files-to-an...), you can write a script to press the key "R" (which is the keyboard shortcut to open the Rubric in Speedgrader) for you.

@jerry_nguyen is correct.  

There is however a user javascript that will do exactly what you want and it works with assignments and classic quizzes.  I do not knkow about new quizzes because I do not use them.

There is a canvancement written by james called quiz wiz: https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Higher-Ed-Canvas-Users/QuizWiz-Enhancements-to-SpeedGrader-and-Qu...

the above link has information and what not about quiz wiz.  the link below will take you to the install script page for quiz wiz.  You will have to install tamper monkey first

https://github.com/jamesjonesmath/canvancement/tree/master/quizzes/quizwiz

then for the quiz wiz script, install the qw-rubrics option.  

With the script enabled, not only will the rubric stay open, but there is an arrow that will perform the submission and move to the next student keeping the rubric open.  It is quite the time saver.

@Ron_Bowman Hi, I'm an Italian teacher who is trying to use canvas to give exams to my students. Wouldn't it be possible to implement something to be able to print the quizzes taken directly from speedgrader?

Is there the possibility of having students enroll directly in a section instead of the course?
A thousand thanks

I also have this issue. Can Canvas please make a ticket for this and include this option in its next version? Every click matters when you have lots of students. I'm not sure the reason why having it minimized is the automatic. Perhaps they could expand on that. Thanks.

Hi there, @bdruken ...

The proper thing to do for a request like yours would be to submit it as a new idea for consideration so that it could later be evaluated by Community members and Instructure staff.  At the moment, the entire idea process is undergoing some changes, and you can read more about that at Turning Your Feedback into Better Prioritization and Release Processes: Our Path Forward.

Once you are done reading through that, there are a few Guides that directly relate to feature ideas:

• What is the feature development process for Instructure products?
• How do Ideas work in the Instructure Community?
• What are the guidelines for submitting a new idea?
• How do I create a new idea in the Instructure Community?

I hope these links will be of help to you.  Good luck!
