Rubrics can be created within a MyFIRE course and then
attached to a discussion topic through the discussion tool. Rubrics attached to
a discussion topic will provide students with an itemized grading scale for the
specified topic. This tutorial shows how to attach a rubric to a discussion
topic within MyFIRE once a rubric has been created in the course.
1. Access the desired course in MyFIRE.
2. Select Instructor Tools at the top of the page in the navigation bar.
3. Select the Course Admin from the drop-down menu.
4. When the page refreshes,
locate and select discussions.
5. Select the drop-down
arrow next to the desired topic.
6. Select Edit Topic from
the drop-down menu.
7. Scroll down and select the
third section, Evaluation & Feedback. Once selected, the menu will
expand.
8. Attach a rubric to the
discussion by selecting add rubric. Professors will have the option of
creating a new rubric or to add an existing rubric.
9. A drop-down menu will
appear. Select add existing to add a rubric that has already been
created.
10. A pop-up window will
appear. Locate and select the desired rubric by selecting the checkbox to the left of the rubric title.
