Just as there are two ways to initiate creation of a rubric, there are two ways to edit rubrics.
Note: changes you make to a rubric will be reflected everywhere that rubric is used. You CANNOT, however, change a rubric which has already been used to grade a submission.
Edit a rubric without an associated gradable item
In the left-hand black course menu bar, expand Control Panel then Course Tools. Choose Rubrics.
Find the rubric you want to edit. Next to the rubric, click the gray arrow and Edit.
Make your changes. Be sure to click Submit to save your work.
Edit a new rubric from within an associated gradable item.
From within an assignment, subjective test questions, discussion forums, wikis, blogs and journals, and grade center columns you can edit the rubric which is associated with that content.
From inside the Edit Assignment (or Edit Question, etc) and under the Grading heading, you should see any attached rubrics.
There is an edit button just to the left of the name of the rubric. Click it.
This will open a pop-out window where you can edit your rubric.
Make your changes. Be sure to click Submit to save your work.
