How do I Grade Aligned Materials?

If you've aligned course materials to learning objectives a rubric grading view will be automatically generated for that material. The rubric will be created based on the aligned objectives and cannot be shared or copied across other materials. 

Important Notes: 

  • This is a different workflow from the existing rubrics that can be created, edited, and managed in the course Grade Setup area. You cannot use an existing rubric in conjunction with a material that is aligned to district objectives. 

  • You cannot currently set a Total Score or Overall Score override for the material. Materials must be graded by each aligned district objective. 

These material-specific rubrics are generated based on the district objectives aligned to the material and enable you to evaluate the student's submission by each learning objective according to your district’s mastery scale, which is configured by your System Administrators.  

You must also select a Gradebook Scale for the material to determine the score for the material in the course gradebook. You can select the same scale your district has in place as the Mastery Grading Scale, or you can choose a separate scale, such as the default Numeric scale.

These objective-level scores will display in the Standards-Based Gradebook. The objective scores automatically calculate the Total Score. Both the Total Score and the Gradebook Scale you've set for the material determine the score in the traditional Gradebook.  

Using the above example assignment, a student has been awarded 4.00, 3.00, 3.00 and 2.00 for the objectives. Those scores display in the standards-based gradebook as follows:

The assignment has been configured with 100 Total Pts possible and the Numeric scale set as the Gradebook Scale. Therefore, the Total Score is calculated in the rubric grader as 75/100 and displays in the traditional Gradebook as follows:

Notes:  

  • If you make changes to the learning objective scores in the rubric, the Total Score in the gradebook will be updated.  

  • If you add or remove aligned objectives, the Total Score in the gradebook will be updated. 

  • You cannot currently set a Total Score or Overall Score override for the material. Materials must be graded by each aligned district objective.
