of
the space and click Save.

If you are looking to build
a
more comprehensive rubric it would be
recommended to create this after the
assignment has already been
saved
and created. The space for rubric
creation
in the initial setup is relatively
small
and would cause difficulty when
creating
more advanced rubrics.
