Late Policies in Rubrics

Audience: Franklin University faculty looking to use late policies in their rubrics.

Adding Late Policies to Rubrics

Rubrics now have a late policy automatically integrated into them with preset percentages to choose from. Instructors can also set custom late percentages as needed. To use late policies:

1. Open up the assignment that uses a rubric.
2. Click on a student's name to grade their assignment.
3. Within the rubric criteria, you will see the red late policy row like so:
   
   
   
   
4. Now you can click on any of the criteria squares to choose how many points to deduct for being late if needed.
5. If you want to set your own custom percentage to deduct, simply click on the last square in the row titled "Exception".
6. Clicking this square will cause a popup to appear where you can enter your custom percentage.
   
   
   
   
7. When you are done, click on the "X" to close the popup and save your percentage. And that's all there is to using the late policies.
