Once you have created a rubric in Inspera Assessment, you can easily modify its various elements to ensure it perfectly aligns with your assessment needs. 

This article provides instructions on editing rubric titles, criteria, levels of performance, changing the order of levels, and using advanced options for rows and columns.

Edit titles

You can edit the following titles directly within the Rubrics editor:

• Rubrics title (the overall name of the rubric)
• Criterion title (the name of each row)
• Level of performance title (the name of each column)

To edit any of these titles, simply hover over it and click. Changes made to your titles are automatically saved once you click away from the editor.

Edit criteria
