GRADING TIP

Use the filter in Quick grading to identify and select students by 1) those who have not submitted assignments 2) those whose assignments need grading, and 3) all that have submitted.

Add Grade Me block - to quickly identify what needs grading. Shows a teacher all of the assignments and manual quiz questions (essays and file responses) that have been submitted, but not graded.
