3. Select an option:

1. Select Rubric to add a rubric you created with the Rubrics tool. A pop-up window opens, allowing you to select and submit the rubric you choose.

2. Create New Rubric to create a new rubric to associate with the assignment. A pop-up window opens, allowing you to create the rubric that will be associated when you click Submit.

3. Create From Existing to create a new rubric based on a rubric you have already created. A pop-up window opens, allowing you to select the rubric you want to base your new rubric on, and then another window in which you can create the new rubric that will be associated when you click Submit.

4. Finish creating or editing the assignment and click Submit.

   If you are using a percent-based rubric, you need to provide the Points Possible before clicking Submit. If you are using a points-based rubric, you are prompted to use the rubric’s point value as the assignment’s possible points.
