Questions, answered

Good to know.

Does Gradenote publish grades automatically?+

No. Gradenote suggests a score and feedback for you to review. Publishing is always an explicit teacher action.

Can I use my own rubric?+

Yes, once your Canvas connection is live. During this pilot, the course and assignment picker runs on sample data so you can try the full workflow before your school's Canvas is connected.

Is this connected to my school's real Canvas gradebook yet?+

Not yet. Gradenote is currently a pilot build — the course, assignment, and gradebook data you see is sample data, and "Publish to Canvas" writes to a sample gradebook, not a real course. Live Canvas write-back is in progress.

What kind of work can I grade?+

Gradenote works alongside Google Docs and also offers a paste option for text-based student work.
