  6. For each row of the rubric, read the descriptions in the column headings, and then select the cell that most closely represents how the person performed.

    After you click on the cell, it will be highlighted, and the score above the rubric will be updated.

  7. When finished with all of the rows in the rubric, select Save (at the bottom of the window).
  8. If the Next Rubric button appears near the top right corner of the screen, select it to continue grading with the next rubric. Repeat the previous steps to enter and save the grades.
  9. If the Next Exam-Taker button appears below the rubric, this means that there are additional assignments for you to grade. Select the button, and then repeat the previous steps to enter and save the grades. Keep going until you've completed all assigned grading.
  10. When the progress bar (at the top) shows 100% Complete, select the Exam-Takers button (above the progress bar) to return to the exam-takers list.
  11. If all of the progress bars show 100% complete, close the window. If not, repeat the above steps until you've finished the grading.
