Proposed solutions to integrating rubric assignments with outcomes

The problem

When using the new outcome system (MDL-40230) and creating a rubric assignment it is possible to associate outcomes with both the assignment itself and the individual rubric items. There is no link between the two sets of outcomes and the user is left to decide whether to set one, the other or both up. They must also do all set up manually which potentially means choosing outcomes twice.

Possible Solutions

This is focused on the user experience and does not detail the underlying mechanics for implementation.

Keep Activity Outcomes and Rubric Outcomes Separate

This is the current behaviour. The activity and the rubric outcomes are completely independent and can be set in any way that the instructor desires. Highly configurable but very manual.

The activity settings (no mention of any outcomes configured within the rubric or that doing so is even possible)

The rubric editor (no mention of any outcomes configured within the activity)

Once the rubric has been created we could provide the user with the ability to "import" outcomes from the rubric into the activity settings before final manual configuration. This would require the user to return to the activity settings page after setting up the rubric.

A read-only listing of outcomes from the rubric on the activity settings page and outcomes from the activity on the rubric definition page could be helpful.

Rubric outcomes on the activity settings page. Note that users would only see this if they returned to the activity settings after setting up the rubric.

Activity outcomes on the rubric page could be handy.

Disable Activity Outcomes If Rubric is Selected

If the user sets the activity grading method to "rubric" disable the outcome section. Outcomes can only be selected within the rubric. If the user returns to the settings page after setting up the rubric we could possible display a listing of the rubrics as a convenience.

Give The User The Choice Of Activity, Rubric or Both

Provide the user with the ability to choose whether to use the outcomes from the activity, from the rubric or both combined.
