Last month, the addition of Rubrics was announced as a new feature enhancement in LearningStudio. Today, the second of three phases went live. 

What can users do now, that they couldn't do before?

Instructors can now grade assignments using a rubric previously attached to a gradeable item in the gradebook setup. For now, however, keep in mind that if you grade an assignment using a rubric, students will only be able to see their score, not the rubric itself or the instructor comments entered within the rubric. The target date for phase 3 is the fourth quarter of 2013.

Phase 3: Student View (anticipated by end of 2013)

Students will be able to access their grade, view the Rubric, and read comments
