Gradescope is an online grading platform designed to streamline and enhance grading workflow. Traditional paper-based assignments such as project sets and exams can be scanned and uploaded to the platform, and digital assignments like coding projects can be submitted online. Instructors and teaching assistants (TAs) can quickly grade them using a pre-built or dynamic rubric. Gradescope supports grading by individual questions and grading similar answers at once. The Gradescope-Canvas integration allows instructors to sync their class roster, share feedback with students, and post grades directly to the Canvas Gradebook.
