[SpeedGrader] Expedite entering a grade Speedgrader.

Problem statement:

Currently, a lot of clicking and typing is required per assignment, per student and then clicking (or using a keyboard shortcut) again to advance to the next student. I do like the slider feature on the mobile teacher app, but I think having radio-style buttons on a laptop would be beneficial to enter grades quickly.

Proposed solution:

To expedite entering grades, teachers could click on a button for 100% or be able to set up a rubric-style choice menu that allows for defined buttons (ABCDE or 3/5, 4/5, 5/5, etc) - rather than constantly entering digits. Also, a more appropriate "enter" button that also advances the page to the next student.

I am happy to share that assignments with Rubrics can be used in the way you describe. Here are a couple of links to documents in the Canvas Guides:

How do I use a rubric to grade submissions in SpeedGrader?

Yes, thank you.  I'm aware of the use of the rubrics - however that requires clicking on "view rubric" then adjusting the screen size to view it or realigning it (vertical) to see the choices and the submit button - for each student.  I was suggesting a more streamlined approach to entering values.
