Objective: Learn to grade teacher graded items within assignments, exams, and quizzes using SpeedGrader.

Notes: StrongMind curriculum is roughly 80% computer graded and 20% teacher graded. You can find the location of teacher graded items in the Teacher Resource Guide in your course. There is a document that will detail specific units, lessons, and activities that need your attention.

SpeedGrader makes it easy for teachers to evaluate assignments quickly. In SpeedGrader, student submissions, grades, rubrics, and comments are saved all in one place.

Multiple users should not grade assignments at the same time since each grader cannot view the most recent information for a submission.
