Hello All!
I do not know who is the moderator for this forum so I do not know who to officially address this to. However I wanted to bring up the issue of the ability to use the rubric as an assessment and a grading tool with all activities, not only the Workshop activity. This, of course, should be a choice for a teacher and not presented as the only way to grade an activity.
Should this issue be raised here or in the grade forum, or both?
I have also filed a bug on this Bug # 2255,
I found a prior Bug # 795 but it only addresses assignments. I think it would be a good tool to use with all the activities.
I had also brought this up on another thread a while back but there was no real discussion about the possibility of implementing it in all activities.

I agree that this would be a great enhancement to moodle. Rubrics are important in qualitative grading and are more powerful and detailed than the current scales, though similar in concept. Rubrics are important in a social-constructivist approach as they are particularly suited to the grading of activities, as opposed to tests and quizzes.
Great idea, WP.

Moodle and other "constructivism" products ask more and more that students will deliver eassys and other "open-ended" products, stored in their personal portfolio.
Poor teacher who has to look at these products and grade them..
That's why I consider to give every task in a learning envoronment his own Rubrics-sheet, and yes in the way you choose: I give you five, you modify one of these: your improved number six and give that back to the community...
Put the word Rubics in your search engine and be astonished how the Rubrics-virus is spread in the USA.. to give you a compilation of designs of forms..
(My favorite Rubricstore is http://rubistar.4teachers.org/ take one, give one back..)
In the website of webquest you see the most common version of rubrics, like this nice moodle version: WebQuest on Simple Machines.
Here some other approaches in this old Columbia attachment...
I still dream of a Rubricstore, integrated in a better course-related-DMS in Moodle, giving each not-quizzy-learning-activity his own rubricsheet..
