Grading in Large Sections

Large sections pose a unique challenge for institutions when it comes to grading and providing feedback on their students' homework assignments. Large sections are very impersonal to the learner. Ensuring that students get detailed, constructive, and actionable feedback within a few days can personalize the learning experience.

Our Virtual-TA service provides constancy and continuity by assigning your grading the same TAs, saving you all the time it takes to hire, onboard, train, and monitor the TA pool. Perhaps more important is our ability to provide detailed, timely, and actionable feedback on every single student assignment. As our name indicates, our end-to-end process ensures that graders provide timely feedback students need to complete their learning.

We carefully hire Masters- or PhD-qualified professionals in a wide range of academic disciplines, train them in the art of providing rich feedback, and monitor the grading process.

We have the TAs; only you can decide if your institution’s most expensive resources—your TT faculty—are utilized for the kind of work they trained for, whether that be research or more of the instruction your students came to receive.
