This can be adjusted to change the calculation of points on rubric criteria, quiz questions or total assignment points to a percentage to place that student’s skill level in the correct level of the proficiency scale/program outcome rubric.
Step 12 (Optional): Select the check box in the bottom left-hand corner to “Use these rubrics values when linking new assignments”
