Once you have created and assigned a rubric assessment, it may require that students submit that assessment.
💡 Tip from the Otus Team: submission is only required if students are attaching a file or Google Doc. If an attachment or Google Doc is not necessary, the teacher can simply open up the assessment in their account and begin grading.
