Gradescope WITH Canvas Integration (RECOMMENDED)

1. NOTE: The Instructor-of-Record as listed in the Schedule of Classses must perform these steps in order for the Canvas integration to work properly.  TAs can then be added later to assist with grading and other tasks.
2. Login to Canvas.
3. On the left sidebar, go to "Courses" -> (Select your course) -> "Gradescope".
   • If there is no "Gradescope" option visible, see how to "Enable Gradescope" first.
