Workflow differences

CodeGrade offers seamless LTI integration with any LMS, enabling automatic student enrollment and assignment submission without secondary accounts. It also functions as a standalone platform supporting single-sign-on (SSO) with institution accounts. Unlike Gradescope, which is primarily an end assessment tool, CodeGrade serves as both an assessment tool and a learning platform.Formative assessment, including practice and feedback, is essential for student success, and CodeGrade excels in this area.

It allows students to receive progressive feedback on coding assignments, edit code directly within the LMS, and get inline feedback on code style and compilation errors. This continuous feedback loop supports learning and improvement over time, rather than just evaluating performance at the end.Setting up a coding environment can be daunting for beginners. CodeGrade’s intuitive editor simplifies this process, allowing students to code directly in their LMS and check their code with advanced autograding features.

This ensures that the benefits of the system are fully accessible to students. CodeGrade supports any programming language and testing framework, allowing customization of the autograder to suit assignment levels and requirements. It can assess submissions in various ways, from identifying minor errors in beginner assignments to accepting diverse solutions in advanced tasks.
