Multi Rater Assessment Creation

Assessment leads create and configure assessment folders in iRubric Rapid. Each folder holds a collection of student submissions (child assessments) and defines which rubric, evaluators, and settings apply to the entire batch.

Note: The rubric must exist and be locked before you create the assessment folder. See How to build a rubric.

Note: If using LMS or other integrations, make sure evaluators have logged into RCampus at least once for their account to exist before they can be added to a folder.

Step 1 — Create the Assessment Folder

1. From the main menu, go to Rubrics > Assessments.
2. Click Create a new assessment.
3. Select the rubric from the dropdown menu.
4. Under Option 2, select Quick Setup or Enhanced Setup under Rapid.
5. Enter the assessment title and any general information.

Note: Use a clear, consistent folder name — typically the course title, outcome name, or another identifier your department agrees on (e.g., ENG 101 – Written Communication – FA2025).

Step 2 — Configure Advanced Settings

Click Advanced Options to configure additional settings before saving:

• Blind Assessment — enable this if evaluators should not see student names during scoring.
• Allow evaluators to upload documents — enable this if raters, rather than the assessment lead, will upload submissions.
• Other options as needed for your assessment design.

Press Save when done.

Note: Blind Assessment hides student-identifying information during scoring. It does not issue grades — this is an assessment, not a grading tool. Remind students not to include their names inside submitted documents if blind assessment is enabled.

Step 3 — Add Evaluators

1. In the Groups section, search for and select the evaluators (raters) for this assessment.
2. Evaluators can be added individually or as a group.
3. Press Continue when done. The assessment folder is now created.

Note: To create evaluator groups, see the Create Private Groups tutorial.
