Crowdmark and Gradescope are online collaborative grading and analytics tools that streamline the marking process for educators. These web applications allow simultaneous grading from multiple graders. They can also transfer the grading of paper-based assessments into online grading through bulk scanning and a clever identification system.
Paper-based assessments with short answers, diagrams, multiple choice, and math questions are ideal. Benefits to using these tools include:
Multiple graders can work in parallel
Enhanced academic integrity
Grading effectiveness and performance can be monitored while the team is evaluating student work
Cut-down on class time spent on returning feedback
Crowdmark and Gradescope are free for courses until at least December 31, 2021.
Currently there are no upcoming webinars. Please contact arts.helpdesk@ubc.ca to request a tutorial.
