Within
MyFIRE, face-to-face instructors have the capability to create and edit a
rubric in a course. Once the rubric has been assessed through an assignment or
discussion, only text fields will be able to be edited to allow for the
correction of spelling errors, clarify wording, and make other minor changes
that do not impact the academic integrity of the rubric. Instructors will not
be able to make structural changes (such as adding evaluation levels or
criteria), change the rubric’s title, or edit the points within an assessed
rubric. This tutorial demonstrates how to edit a rubric within MyFIRE.
1. Locate
the desired course.
2. Select instructor tools from the navigation bar at the top of the page.
3. A
drop-down menu will appear, select course admin.
4. Under
the Assessment section, select rubrics.
5. When
the rubric page appears, locate the desired rubric from the list of
available rubrics.
6. Select
the drop-down arrow to the right of the rubric title.
7. A
drop-down menu will appear. Select edit options.
8. When
the page refreshes, a “the rubric is locked to structural changes because it
has already been used to assess learner work” message appears at the top of the page. Select edit
text.
9. A
pop-up window will appear and provide a confirmation that changes will be
applied to all previous and future assessments and that changing assessment
criteria may result in academic integrity concerns. Initial feedback will not
be updated if it has been edited in previous assessments. Select edit text once again.
10. When
the page refreshes, edit the desired text fields.
11. The
fields that have been edited will display (Edited) in the bottom right
corner of the textbox. Note: When the rubric saved and closed, the edit
indications no longer appear.
12. Once
done editing the rubric’s text, select close at the bottom of the
page.
