Literatu Paper Grading

Paper Grading -= Rubric Marking - all on your phone

It’s incredible just how much marking, observation and feedback teachers do every day and from that process, how much data and feedback simply goes missing in action. Considering that grading and feedback remains the biggest influence teachers can make on student learning outcomes, grading assessments is not going away anytime soon.

We know teachers actually don't spend their entire day in front of a computer, collecting, managing and evaluating data. Most times, system based updates and catch ups are all done on their time. Remembering, transposing and updating results and feedback takes time and challenges memory. One teacher referred to their current process as preparing weekly autopsies on their students.

Our new app, Paper Grading, meets the challenges teachers face, helping to quickly collect grading and feedback using a familiar smartphone app to collect and deliver better insights into student learning, instantly. Paper Grading is available for any teacher with a Literatu account.

Key features and functionality

Capture the moment

We don’t change the way you work, we simply want to better support you. Keep doing what you do now. Use comments in Word or Google, circle the paper based rubric, write on the paper submission, whatever you do to give feedback and that suits you.

When it comes to recording the grade as a number, letter or against a rubric, Paper Grading is your new friend. No more transposition of results to paper or excel, no loss of data, all grades are quickly captured with your favourite assistant - your phone.

Mark that lab experiment, essay, powerpoint presentation, speech, group work, drama presentation, anything that currently takes time, stretches your memory and duplicates data.

Add feedback
