Working with weights
Level weights
A level is a column in the rubric. Level weights are integral to a rubric and are required. They determine how each criterion is scored. A simple weight scale for levels would be 1, 2, 3, etc. with 1 being the poorest performance level.
Criteria weights
Criteria weights can be assigned to distribute the scoring among criteria. If no weights are assigned, all criteria will have an equal weight of 1 leaving the score determination to levels.
Section weights
A section is designated by rubric divider rows. A section can be assigned an arbitrary percentage if needed.
