Introducing the ability to grade and assign grading labels in bulk in Google Classroom

What’s changing

To further improve grading options for teachers using grading systems in Google Classroom, we recently introduced the ability to perform bulk grading via ‘grade all’. With this new feature, teachers can quickly and efficiently grade all students' work on the Gradebook page by selecting ‘grade all’. They can also choose to override existing grades and automatically return them to students after grading. 


Today, we’re excited to announce that teachers can now take bulk grading action on the Student work page in addition to the Gradebook. This update enables teachers to grade and assign grading labels in bulk, ultimately making grading more efficient and saving teachers time. 


Getting started 

  • Admins: There is no admin control for this feature. 
  • End users: 
    • Once a teacher has set up grading, they can follow these steps to grade all: 
      • Go to Google Classroom > Student Work Page > select multiple students > click the bulk actions menu and select the desired option 
    • Visit the Help Center to learn more about grading & returning an assignment.

Availability 

  • Available to all Google Workspace customers, Workspace Individual Subscribers, and users with personal Google accounts
