Experiment with AI Grading Assistants

Sep 24, 2024

Grading is time-consuming, tedious, and often inconsistent.

That’s why many professors are turning to AI grading assistants!

These tools can help you cut grading time in half while improving the quality and consistency of your student feedback.

Experimenting with an AI grader increases consistency and decreases time spent grading

Imagine this:

  • You stare at a stack of BMCs, pitches or MVP descriptions.
  • You know your students are anxious for feedback while the work is fresh in their minds.
  • With everything on your plate, you take too long and deliver somewhat generic feedback.
  • You feel guilty.
  • Not because you don’t care, but because you didn’t have time to give each student the thoughtful response they deserve.

Now imagine this from your student’s perspective:

  • They turn in their assignment, excited to improve.
  • They wait a week, maybe more, anxious for feedback on their assignment.
  • When the feedback finally comes, it’s vague and surface-level.
  • Even worse? Their friend got detailed comments and helpful next steps.

Inconsistency like this is frustrating and totally avoidable.
