Using Gradescope
MTH 437/537 — Spring 2021
(last update: 3/23/21)
Below are some comments about using Gradescope, in no particular order.
You are encouraged to suggest changes or additions to this list.
-
Accessing Gradescope:
-
-
Clicking on an assignment in Canvas ought to take you to Gradescope
automatically, without leaving Canvas.
-
There is also a Gradescope link in the Canvas navigation panel on the
left.
-
You should also be able to go directly to
Gradescope
and login with ONID credentials.
Select School Credentials on the login screen.
-
Uploading assignments:
-
-
Please make sure that your file name includes your own name, as well
as the name of the assignment.
One possibility would be "DrayHW2.pdf".
-
You will be asked to identify which page(s) correspond to which
problem(s) when you submit your assignment.
Don't forget this step! Without it, assignments are much more
difficult to grade.
-
You may therefore prefer to write up each problem on one or more
separate pages, but this should not be necessary.
-
Presentation is listed as a separate problem for grading purposes
only.
Best practice is probably to associate your entire assignment
with this problem, but I believe you can also skip this step.
-
Grading:
-
-
Problems designated as "MTH 537 only" may be attempted by MTH 437
students for extra credit, or left blank.
-
Each assignment will be worth 10 points for content, and 5 points for
presentation.
-
Canvas may not display these totals correctly; they will be rescaled
in my gradebook.
