Overview

Gradescope is a web platform for grading student work, hopefully more efficiently than grading by hand or with Canvas's SpeedGrader. Both students and instructors can submit work to Gradescope for grading.

Summary

For example,

  • Students can upload problem sets (homework) to Gradescope as a single PDF or taking pictures of individual problems,
  • Instructors can upload scans of students' paper exams to grade digitally,
  • Students can take a picture of their daily in-class worksheet to submit in Gradescope,
  • Instructors can replace Scantrons with Gradescope's bubble-sheet template for in class exams, or
  • Students can create self-formed groups and submit group work just by adding group members' names to one submission.
