  3. In the Add Block modal, either:
    • Use the Search field to find a block by keyword

    • Scroll through the list of All Blocks to select one
    • Use the various Categories to filter by block type
    • Select a star icon to add or remove blocks in your Favorites list

  4. Select the Rubric block. The Rubric form will open. Complete the Add Rubric form.
    Rubric Settings:
    • Title: Enter a title for the rubric.
    • Scale Type: Choose Number, Letter, or Other from the dropdown. If Number or Letter is selected, the Scale: fields will auto-populate. Number is the default scale type and will be selected by default when the Add Rubric form first appears. If Other is selected, a custom scale type can be entered.
    • Note: As each Scale: field is populated or removed, a corresponding field is added or removed from each Category.

Manage Categories

Add Category: Enter the Title:* of the category and the criteria for each level of the rubric scale. Click Save Category and repeat the process until all required categories are created.
