Gradescope is now available in the Learn@UW teaching and learning suite.
Gradescope is now available to all faculty and instructors through the Learn@UW suite of teaching and learning tools. While some courses were already using this teaching tool, support within DoIT Academic Technology ensures that it is available campus-wide.
What is Gradescope?
Gradescope is a tool designed to streamline the grading process, allowing for faster and more consistent grading, while also facilitating detailed feedback to students. Its features include:
