Grading can often be time and energy-consuming. What if you had a tool that could scan and recognize student handwritten work and grade it digitally?

With Gradescope, faculty have access to dynamic analytics, streamlined grading, and rich feedback tools, making it easier to evaluate student work—including handwritten work—and provide timely feedback that keeps large and small classes engaged in the learning process. Join us to hear directly from colleagues who are already using it in their courses and learn how this tool can lighten the load so you can focus more on the joy of teaching.

Presented by:
Dr. Pritha Chakraborty, Assistant Professor of Instruction, Department of Mathematics
Dr. Jill Seaman, Professor of Instruction, Department of Computer Science
Dr. Christopher Wight, Assistant Professor of Instruction, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry
