Speed Up SpeedGrader!
SpeedGrader can be an efficient and powerful tool for viewing, annotating, commenting and grading student work. But a few tweaks can fine tune it for faster instructor performance!
Sort students by submission status
Instead of scrolling through a long list, grouping students by Needs Grading, Graded, and No Submission makes it easier to get through a batch of assignments.
See the Canvas Guide:
How do I sort the student list in SpeedGrader?
Use keyboard shortcuts
SpeedGrader has several built-in keyboard shortcuts for navigating. Mousing around a screen takes time, and a toll on the wrist, so mastering a few simple keyboard shortcuts can make repetitive tasks go faster and hurt less.

Speedgrader is amazing. Period. I don’t know how I got through anything before SG. Thanks a million for the information.
I agree! I love that students can access their grades at any time. The shortcuts have been very helpful.
I totally agree!!
I like it, too. I’ve been using the voice to text feature a lot.
