Holistic rubrics, as the name applies, evaluate and give feedback on the assessment as a whole. They use a single row to articulate criteria expectations and the varying levels of achievement. It allows for more comprehensive feedback with the possibility of individualized feedback (if overall feedback text accompanies the rubric) but they can lack targeted specific criteria

Scoring/Grading with a Holistic Rubric

By default, Holistic rubrics are set with a scoring type of “Percentage”, the only other option is “No Score”. The percentage associated with the rubric criteria will reflect the final grade given to the student automatically. Instructors must overwrite the grade when grading the assessment, or use No Score if they do not wish for the criteria percentage to automatically be the student’s grade.
