We need the ability to run a report on assignments that provides data based upon rubric row rather than just the comprehensive score for the assignment. By being able to run a report that broke down student results by rubric row or category we will have the ability to better analyze student data and make curricular decisions that improve our programs. This is a requirement of our accreditation process and something we need to speak to annually as a part of our academic program review.
As far as our accreditation standards go, here is a link from NWCCU: https://nwccu.org/standards/ This feature would help us meet the points 1.B (all points) and then 1.C (1-5). There are some peripheral standards in 1.D and in all of standard 2, but 1.B and 1.C are the most prominent place we would use this detailed data to improve our academic programs. Currently we have to use an outside program to meet these requirements, and it would help our institution immensely to be able to use Populi to do this instead.
This request seems similar to ours, but the exact use case I am mentioning here was never mentioned in the post in detail.

Sam Baker We request consideration of the Populi feature request that enables the extraction of rubric data for course, departmental, and institutional assessments. Unlike the functionality available in competing LMS platforms, such as Canvas and Blackboard, which provide assessment data with minimal effort, current workarounds within Populi are time-consuming. Implementing this feature would lead to significant improvements in efficiency, saving time and resources for faculty, department heads, and administrative staff involved in assessment and reporting. We urge Populi to consider this request to better support the assessment needs of our institution.

Felicia Squires This feature would be a valuable addition to Populi's platform.

Gary Derickson I support this request because it will enable us to more effectively evaluate our programs as well as provide Accreditors the ability to see the success of our programs. Right now, it is VERY difficult to get the information we need to do an assessment, whereas rubrics will provide a University-wide means of assessment.
