Community Review for GradeCam
My Take
Although this is on the lowest end of the SAMR ladder -- automatizing grading is extremely valuable to me and saves time and money (no need for scantrons or waiting in the scantron line)
How I Use It
Most of the answers here are N/A .... this is really a better tool for teachers to speed up grading and observing and reporting trends. There is a bit a set-up required as you must create your own classes and student IDs - but well worth the time over a year of teaching.
