👏 Enhancements

Advanced Assessment Builder: Question Type Reordering

When building an Advanced assessment, the 7 Desmos math item types have been moved to the bottom of the question type list in the Author tool, so the most commonly used question types now appear first without needing to scroll past math options.

Rubric: Grading Improvements

When grading a point-based Rubric assignment on the Class Grading page, drop-downs have been replaced with point-input fields, allowing educators to enter any value between the minimum and maximum points configured for the assessment.
