What makes Canvas so great that you would want to use it to grade instead of what you’ve been doing so far?

This section will first cover how to navigate to, and use, SpeedGrader in three different forms: Assignments, Quizzes, and Discussion Forums. This may seem redundant; however, SpeedGrader looks slightly different between those three activities.
