SpeedGrader is an inline grading feature in Canvas. SpeedGrader empowers you to view and grade student assignment submissions in one place. In SpeedGrader, you have the flexibility to use a simple point scale or a complex rubric, and you can use the Crocodoc markup feature to annotate comments directly on student paper submissions. At present, Crocodoc is only compatible with .doc/.docx, .ppt/.pptx, and .pdf file types. You can also leave text, file attachments, and media comments for students through the SpeedGrader interface.
