Assessment Leads have the option to incorporate rubric assessment results directly from D2L Brightspace into measure results in Watermark. The results pulled will be reflected in the plan’s annual reports.
Align Rubric Results from D2L Brightspace
Once the integration is activated, assessment leads can pull assessment results from D2L Brightspace into measures in Planning & Self-Study using their own accounts. To do this, an assessment lead will follow these steps:
- Either create a new measure or add results to an existing one. Create a new measure and select “Align Rubric”.

- Select from two role options. If the user is an Administrator or Administrator - Limited within D2L, then they will select the Administrator role and search for the Courses to which they have access. If the user is an Instructor within D2L, they will select the Instructor option and can then select from the course(s) they have access to.
- Once a role is selected, they can select a specific academic year from the dropdown menu. The academic years are specific to the academic/reporting years created in Planning and Self-Study. All of the available academic years for the institution are displayed in the dropdown.
- After selecting an academic year, instructors will automatically see all courses falling within the date range of that academic year. Courses are displayed in a two-column format, showing course code and course name. Sorting of courses is alphanumeric. Courses are presented as single-select radio options. Once selected, the course is displayed in the footer beside the "Selected Course" option. If no course is selected, "None" is displayed.
- Instructors can also use the search option to search for specific courses. If no results are found, a helpful message guides users to refine their search or select a different academic year. Pagination is implemented to display up to 50 records per page.
- After selecting a course and clicking next, users will be directed to selecting Artifacts, Assignments, Rubrics and Results Settings.
- The rubric list will filter automatically based on the selected assignment/topic. The user will then be able to choose to pull either the overall rubric score or rubric criteria results into Planning & Self-Study.
Select the Rubric from the list & choose overall score or rubric criteria results.
- Once aligned, the filtered results from D2L Brightspace will display in the measure in Planning & Self-Study, as well as in the Annual Report generated from within Planning & Self-Study.
