Additional Information

  • Deleting a rubric from GradeMark will permanently remove the rubric from your Rubric Library.
  • Rubrics that have a lock in place of the trashcan have been shared to your account by the account administrator and cannot be removed.
  • If you select to delete a rubric which is attached to the current assignment, you will be prompted to select whether or not to remove the rubric from the current assignment as well. Removing the rubric from the assignment will remove any grading that was done with the rubric scorecard.
  • If you select to delete a rubric which is attached to a previous assignment, the rubric will be removed from your Rubric Library but will not be detached from your previous assignments. For more information on removing a rubric from an assignment, please read our article on detaching a rubric from an assignment.
  • GradeMark is only available for use by instructors in accounts which have purchased the GradeMark module. If you are interested in purchasing GradeMark, please contact your Turnitin sales representative.
  • To ensure that all marks and changes to marks added to a paper are saved, instructors must click save at the top of the GradeMark paper before closing the paper.
