Training and Professional Development

  • Gradescope Workshops

    Gradescope is a feedback and assessment tool that can reduce the time and some difficulty associated with grading exams, homework, and other assignments. Gradescope is widely used to deliver assessments remotely. It enables instructors and graders to give better and more timely feedback, resulting in improved learning outcomes. Dynamic rubrics help streamline the tedious parts of grading while increasing grading consistency. AI-assisted Grading allows instructors to automatically group similar answers and grade all the answers in each group at once. Gradescope also helps with grading programming assignments at scale and can automatically grade printed bubble sheets.

    Gradescope is offering a workshop series which will cover all Gradescope assignment types and course formats. The workshops will cover assignments that are hand-written, fully online, and a combination of the two. The available sessions are:
