Grading with rubrics promotes transparency, fairness, and consistency in grading, especially when used with the anonymous grading option, and allows instructors to provide concrete, actionable feedback based on the rubric criteria. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Brightspace Rubrics tool includes two rubric types: analytic and holistic. Analytic rubrics have the assessment criteria on separate rows and levels of achievement as columns, the classic grid rubric. Holistic rubrics are used to assess learners\u2019 overall achievement on an activity or based on predefined achievement levels. They are one-dimensional in that they only include one criterion: overall achievement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Glossary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns has-small-font-size is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column has-white-color has-accent-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-58ef5aec561fa8196aed540e328f1640 is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading small-padding has-white-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-a91cb857c7ef5092a0cf230e6828e12f\">Analytic Rubric<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"resource-small-padding\">A table or grid of scoring criteria categories, such as \u201cAnalysis&#8221;, \u201cArgumentation\u201d, or \u201cCohesion\u201d, and achievement levels, such as \u201cProficient\u201d, \u201cCompetent\u201d, or \u201cDeveloping\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column has-white-color has-accent-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-f61b565921b36e83fbd21bc5e795be71 is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading small-padding has-white-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-d7358a279b650d2f9dbd371dc9a13997\">Holistic Rubric<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"resource-small-padding\">A one-dimensional Brightspace rubric with a single criterion, overall performance, and predefined achievement levels.
