To enhance grading efficiency, instructors can now pop out the grading rubric into a separate window when grading an assignment submission. The pop-out rubric is a separate, movable window and formatted in a grid view. Popping out the rubric lets you view the student submission and the rubric side-by-side for a more efficient grading experience.
Instructors can pop out the rubric by selecting the expand icon in the rubric panel.
NOTE: When the pop-out rubric is open, the ability to add Overall Feedback and grade with the rubric in the main grading interface is inactive. This prevents an instructor from editing the same information in two separate places simultaneously.
