Jenny Amos, a Teaching Professor at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, saw her engineering course rapidly expanding, jumping from a cohort of around 40 students to 70 or 80. She began looking for a solution to save time when grading to focus on her students’ learning and understanding.
When she found Gradescope, Amos and her colleagues were able to scale feedback to get insights into how students were applying principles, even across large courses.
Through the use of dynamically updated rubrics and splitting grading across the academic team, Amos immediately got time back and graded more consistently. “My first exam, as soon as I tried it, I saw huge grading efficiency,” Amos says. “We split out problems for myself and the group to grade [and] I could see everything in the system. We also noticed we were more consistent grading particular questions.”
