Gradescope Getting Started
What is Gradescope?
GradeHub has merged with Gradescope. Please note: The College of Arts & Sciences and College of Engineering and Mines will be continuing with Gradescope. If departments outside of these colleges would like to use Gradescope, please reach out to UND Procurement.
Gradescope is a feedback and assessment tool that reduces the pain and time associated with grading exams, homework, and other assignments. It is widely used for delivering assessments remotely and enables instructors and graders to provide better and more timely feedback, resulting in improved learning outcomes.
A few highlights include:
- More quality and timely feedback, resulting in improved learning outcomes
- Dynamic rubrics that help streamline the tedious parts of grading while increasing
grading consistency and decreasing bias - Various assignment types ranging from fully online with many question types to
handwritten, or a combination of the two - AI-assisted grading which allows instructors to automatically group similar answers
and
grade all the answers in each group at once
