Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is a framework for curriculum development that supports the diverse learning needs of students. Using UDL strategies to intentionally design a flexible learning environment for students can eliminate potential barriers to learning and result in a more equitable, inclusive, and supportive learning experience.
Gradescope is a web-based tool designed to streamline and standardize assessment of paper-based, digital, and code assignments. With Gradescope, students can upload scanned pen-and-paper problem sets, as well as files, to be graded by an instructor in an easy online interface that also allows for on-the-fly rubric creation and feedback. As grading rubrics are changed, Gradescope can retroactively adjust assignments that have already been graded. Gradescope is available to all Colgate faculty members.
