Rubrics

Images in rubric items

Paste a picture of the expected work straight into an item.

Sometimes the fastest feedback is a picture: the correct graph, the expected free-body diagram, the setup students should have used. You can paste images directly into rubric items.

How to paste

  1. Copy an image to your clipboard (a screenshot, a snip of your answer key, an image copied from any document).
  2. Click into the rubric item's description where you want it.
  3. Paste. The image appears inline and is stored with the item.

Images work in both the outline editor and the grading view, and they sit alongside text and LaTeX in the same item. Large images are automatically downscaled for fast loading; you do not need to resize before pasting.

After a rubric import

Imported rubrics replace any embedded images with a "paste image here" placeholder, since image content cannot be reliably extracted from PDF rubrics. Open the original, copy each image, and paste it over the placeholder.
