    1. Note: If you are using a rubric for any aspect of a video assignment, that rubric must be used to grade the assignment as well.
    2. If your selected grade type is Rubric, you will see an additional menu option to select the rubric you want to use to grade the assignment. The rubrics available in this menu must be created in Bongo to be visible. LEARN rubrics must be replicated in bongo if used.
