I'm trying to add a criteria into a rubrics. I only see an option to add a criteria at the very end. Is there a way to re-order the criteria within the rubrics?
Thanks
Hi @NehaGulati,
With the standard rubrics in Canvas, unless you're using some kind of modification script, you can't add a criteria in the middle of others. Unfortunately, you also can't rearrange things, so if you need to add something in the middle it would be a lot of retyping.
The good news is that Instructure is currently developing what they call "enhanced rubrics" which have a lot more features, but also some added complexity because of the extra features. You may or may not have access to these in your Canvas course, depending what your school/institution administrators have enabled for you. You can read more about the enhanced rubrics in the Enhanced Rubrics User Group.
I hope this helps, even if it's not the info you hoped to hear right away.

Hi there, @NehaGulati ...
In addition to what @chriscas has mentioned, if you are still using the standard rubrics, @James Jones has developed a script that allows you to re-order rubrics. You can find it at:
Sorting Rubrics Made Easy - Instructure Community - 272179
This is one of his many Canvancements - Canvas Enhancements - Instructure Community - 246997 that you can check out whenever you want.
I hope this will be of some help to you. If you have questions about James' script, I would encourage you to post your question(s) to James' blog post.
Good luck!

This is my first time using the new discussion "checkpoints". I'm hoping the multiple due dates are effective, but using the "checkpoints" does seem to create other problems: They only allow for ONE "reply to topic". The way I use discussions in some of my classes is to allow for students to ask MULTIPLE questions per…
