Copying and deleting a criterion group

To better facilitate organizing and reusing rubric content, instructors can copy or delete an existing criteria group.

Note: When a rubric with attached assessment items has submissions evaluated against it, the rubric is locked and can no longer be edited or deleted.

When you have an existing criteria group, the Copy Criteria Group and Delete Criteria Group options appear when you click (...) Action Menu on the Criteria Group header. If you are using keyboard-only navigation, these options are available in the tab order after the criteria group name.

To copy an existing criteria group:

1. On the navbar or from the Course Admin menu, click Rubrics.

2. On the Rubrics page, click the rubric you want to edit.

3. Identify the Rubric criteria group that you want to copy and click the (...) Action Menu beside the Criteria Group header.

4. Click Copy Criteria Group.
