Hi Brian,
That's a very interesting point; our tutors like the rubrics, but said exactly the same thing - nice tool, but unintuitive name - what does Rubric mean? We've steered away from language pack changes so far due to the complexities when upgrading, but this does seem like a good idea. Perhaps a name involving 'assessment criteria' or 'criteria checklist' would be good?

Subject: Renaming of Rubrics?
Hi everyone,
We're upgrading to SP8 soon and are excited that the rubrics tool is more usable now. However some concerns have been raised if the name means anything to staff and students.
Has anyone has used the language pack to change the name of rubrics and what have you chosen to call them? Or did you just stick with the default rubrics and let staff know what that means?
Thanks,
Brian
