• Identify and record necessary criterion IDs and rating IDs required for rubric-based grading.
• List student submissions to manage grading tasks effectively.

Who it is for

This skill is designed for educators including instructors and teaching assistants who utilize Canvas LMS and wish to streamline their grading process. It is also beneficial for developers and technical teams working with AI agent tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex.

Use cases

• Facilitating large-scale grading tasks in educational institutions where Canvas LMS is deployed.
• Enhancing grading consistency by leveraging pre-defined rubric criteria.
• Conducting preliminary grading dry runs to ensure accuracy and integrity of results.

Technical details

To implement this skill, ensure the Canvas MCP server is operational and authenticated with an educator's Canvas API token.

Relevant code methods include get_assignment_details, get_rubric, and list_rubrics, which are essential for executing the rubric-based grading process effectively.
