My university has turned on Enhanced Rubrics in our test environment and I've been testing the features. One issue that I have found is the Duplicate option does not duplicate the Outcome settings. We use Outcomes for assessment purposes and most of our faculty do NOT include the assessment in the course grade. When they add an Outcome to a rubric, they turn off the box "Use this criterion for scoring," which doesn't include the assessed item's score in the course grade but allows us to pull the scores in the Outcomes report for assessment purposes.
When we duplicate this rubric, this setting is NOT duplicated. It is reset to the default on setting, creating an issue for the course grade, inflating the score for the assignment. The only workaround that I can find is to duplicate the rubric, then delete the Outcomes, and then re-add them to the rubric with the "Use this criterion for scoring" box turned off again.
Has anyone else seen this or is Instructure working on a fix?
Hi Kelley, we are seeing a similar issue.
What we're experiencing in testing Enhanced Rubrics is that:
if we duplicate a rubric that has outcomes attached, the copy has its outcomes de-linked and instead has points attached to it (along with some weird html tagging or something). The screenshots below illustrate this issue below:Rubric with outcomes.
Duplicated rubric with broken outcomes.
@KelleyShaffer We have noticed this and it is a known issue with a Canvas developer. I'm hoping they get it resolved soon. This is keeping us from using Enhanced Rubrics at this time.
Thanks so much for the detailed feedback! You're absolutely right. We've identified this issue with the "Use this criterion for scoring" setting not persisting when outcomes are duplicated, and we are working to fix it. This behavior doesn’t align with the expected functionality, especially for institutions like yours that rely on Outcomes for assessment without impacting grades.
We’ll keep you posted as the fix rolls out. Thanks again for flagging it!
