Grading Paper-based Exams?

Consider using Gradescope! Gradescope is a tool which allows instructors to be more efficient when grading paper-based activities by supporting grading consistency. This tool offers time-saving features for grading hand-written worksheets, problem sets, and exams. Gradescope can also auto-grade programming code against instructor-created test cases.
