SpeedGrader is the grading screen of Canvas. You open it from an assignment or a quiz and work through the submissions one student at a time.

Advantages

  • View submissions in place, without downloading them
  • Add comments and annotations directly in the document
  • Grade against a rubric, with the score carried over
  • Give feedback as text, audio or video
  • Move through the submissions student by student
  • The grade goes into the Canvas Gradebook automatically

Points to note

  • SpeedGrader is not a separate tool: you open it from an assignment or a quiz
  • Anonymous and moderated grading are set on the assignment beforehand, not afterwards
