Creating a Rubric

Rubrics can be created using the Rubric Tool, and then can be used many different places in your Blackboard Learn course. Once you create a rubric, it can be used in discussion forums, written assignments, blogs, journals, wikis, and written test questions, such as essays. 

To create a rubric within the Rubric Tool, follow these steps:

  1. On the Course Menu, expand the Course Tools section, and select "Rubrics".
