Tips to Speed up in SpeedGrader 

• Sort your student submissions by Needs Grading.
• Keyboard shortcuts: In SpeedGrader, click on the gear icon . Tip: Use tab on your keyboard to get out of textboxes for the shortcut to work.

• Access SpeedGrader from the Dashboard w/ the To-Do list on the right.
