Overview of Rubrics and where they are attached
The whole rubrics structure needs to be improved in Canvas.
When I import a rubric in from Blackboard, I can't change the order of the columns. By default, Canvas goes from best to worst. Example:
Proficient-->Competent-->Novice
But if the import went from worst to best, there is no way to reorder the columns.
Rubrics should be editable, even if they are connected to multiple assignments--at least until the first day of the course, or until the first assignment is turned in. When I have one rubric attached to thirty different discussion questions, I certainly do not want to delete the rubric and start over, then have to reattach!!
In Blackboard, I could access an overview of all assignments and all discussion questions in one list, and see which rubrics were attached to what. If I accidentally missed attaching a rubric, I could immediately see it and attach it from the overview area. Very handy!!
Currently, when I student is in a discussion post and wants to post their initial response, they cannot automatically see the attached rubric. They have to click the three dots in the upper right-hand corner and "Show Rubrics". The rubric should show up by default below the DQ.
There should be clear instructions about points, range and criteria, which there currently is NOT. Users should be able to set up each criteria and assign each criteria points, the sum of which should equal 100. The range should be defined as from best to worst (or vice versa), and the range of points should equal the sum of the points for that criteria.
Many changes are needed.
